Quilt Retreat

This is the place that we had the quilt retreat, it's a back view but it was huge. The place was completely remodel and their was three floors. I had such a great time I was so glad Katie came it just made it so much more fun. I really miss our fun sewing days we had. Below our a couple projects that we finished. I'll let Katie talk about her's mine is the witch on the left. It's a buggy barn pattern and it was quite interesting technic in cutting and piecing. You stack all fat quarters on top of each other and cut out the witch with a pattern on top and then you move different pieces to the bottom so all of the witches are different. It took me a little bit to figure out but it turned out cute.... Its hard to tell but the witches legs are dangling. I would defenitly do a pattern like this again at least next time will know what to do.
I had other projects but they are gifts so I cant show them until I give them away so I will show them in a little bit. I also made an apron that I just finished but I haven't taken pic's of it so I'll get those on later...
This was the view I dont know if you can tell but in the background the Teton Mountians are there!!
We had the whole first floor setup with table's and sewing machines and cutting boards. It was so cool to see everyones projects they were working on there are alot of talented ladies in the guild.

Okay, so you have no idea who I am-I'm Liz Nixon's cousin, but I want to know what pattern the witch wall hanging is. It's SO cute! I have the perfect layer cake to use. :)

It came out of the book... The frightfully Crazy, The Buggy Barn!!
It takes 9 fat quarters and you use all of it so I dont know if you could use a layer cake unless you shrunk the pattern and that would make it a little tricky, the pieces would be tiny. But who knows it might be fun!!!
