Patoka Valley Quilt Guild Fall Retreat

The Patoka Valley Quilt Guild held their annual fall retreat at the Drury Inn in Evansville, Indiana, the last weekend in October. It is always fun to see what people will bring to work on each year. I did capture just a few of the items on camera. Enjoy...
Robin got this pattern called New Wave from a blog called "Oh, Fransson!" Check it out at  http://www.ohfransson.com/oh_fransson/2010/03/new-wave-quilt.html. This site has GREAT free pattern downloads.
Ann made this quilt for a challenge. It had to be between 20-24 inches square and have three stars (each a different size and made using a different method).
Marge got this pattern from the Moda Bake Shop--http://www.modabakeshop.com/
Robin likes brights...can you tell! This pattern is from Happy Holdiays by Atkinson Designs.
Mary Lou quilted this sweet quilt for the guild's Comfort for Kids project. 
Vicky made a quilt top from a jellyroll. 
This is a mystery quilt from "Quilters Newsletter Magazine."
Sandra worked on the hand applique for her Baltimore-Album-style Halloween quilt.
These blocks are REALLY intricate! 
This is another jellyroll quilt. 
Phyllis made a purse (Mini Bow Tucks by Penny Sturges). I LOVE the use of the peacock fabric. 
The room was a bit small, and we kept blowing a breaker (thus losing power to our machines); but a good time was had by all anyway!
