Projects from the Sunshine Quilt Retreat. Flag block for Hogs for Heroes finished. This block will be mailed to Primitive Gathering Quilt Shop in Larsen, WI. Lisa Bongean has a call out for blocks to be made into fundraisers for the Hogs for Heroes. Mine will be in the mail this week.
Kauldron didn't make it out of the car! Witches Night Out will be next to start.
O Say Can You Sew! Clue 1 finished and Clue 2 finished as much as it could be. Need to cut more neutrals to match up with the remaining red squares.
Hearts of Hope Part 1 finished and Part 2 finished as far as the variety of yellows held out. There are a few more to make. Just about ready to add the already cut neutrals to fashion both parts into the heart they will become. This is the project Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville designed to support Ukraine. Mine will be going to the International Quilt Festival/Long Beach on August 6 where there will be a drop off.
The small version of Be Mine by Laundry Basket Quilts Edyta Sitar finished. My project will be Krush 2. Yes it finished and will be on its way to Kerry once a back is selected from my stash.
There was a red and white 10" block exchange. Not sure what will become of them, but of course participation was a must.
All these are gifts from participants at the retreat. It is lots of fun getting these goodies.
These are fabric enhancements. The first photo show fabrics from a quilt shop that closed its doors a final time the Saturday of our retreat. Needle in a Fabric Stash moved to an online store. The fire hydrant fabric is enough for a charity quilt that is planned. The second photo is from Sew Treasured (aka Primitive Gatherings/Temecula). The rescue fabric will be teamed up with the fire hydrant fabric. The other two bundles are American Gatherings that will be used for the Stitch Along Lisa Bongean offered in 2021.
So there you have the results of the 2021 - 2022 Sunshine Quilt Retreat. We all had a blast complete with a snowball fight arranged by Sherri. There was more coming in than going out of my stash, but as you can see there will soon be a bunch going out!

wow, a lot of goodies. Super big fun at the retreat. Sure was nice chatting with the ladies.
The snow ball fight was really cute, that was a new game for me. lol
You received a lot of things traded among the girls, a whole pail of them.
The Pineapple quilt turned out really cute, like the one with the glasses (lol, wonder who made that one).
Lorna made two nice baskets, some Abby will enjoy and treasure their new beds.
I like the fire hydrant fabric.
Glad that you had a great time.
