Handi Quilter Retreat

Here I am all ready for my first day at Handi Quilter retreat in my new Vans tennies. They are patchworked. Officially my new favorite shoes.



Here I am picking up my thread kit. We learned to work with threads I would have never tried on my own. The teachers were great. I learned so many new techniques to help me with my machine quilting.
Here is our class picture. There were ladies, and a few men, from all over the U.S. and one from Canada.
