November Retreat

On November 12th and 13th our guild held a retreat at the United Church.  This time we tried something new and had a Pot Luck supper.  That went over very well and we had enough food for the next day's lunch and supper.  Not only are we great quilters but we sure know how to cook too!  I think that will become part of our regular Retreat activites from now on.  

The following photos were taken by Barb H, thank you for taking all these great pictures.

Getting the food all set up...and Gail can't wait to get started! 

See lots of delicous food!!

We did quilt too and here is the proof.
