Quilting Retreat







Hello ! I was blessed enough to spent the weekend with my quilting buddies at Camp Allen for a Quilting Retreat. We rented 2, 3 bedroom cabins that were on the"lake". God provided beautiful weather, we provided the good food, Camp Allen provided great accommodations.
It is such a small world, the cabins we stayed in were some of "Claude's Cabins" named for Bishop Claude Payne. He was one of my ministers at St. Martin's years ago. Then I was sitting talking to to one of my quilting friends (a new friend-she goes to another church, but quilts with us) and she said she was from Longview. I told her I only new one person (one of my sister's best friends growing up) that had lived there and she said who and I'll be danged if it wasn't one of her good friends! We called her and had a good visit. We plan to get together soon. Also, my new friend also lives in my neighborhood.A weekend of coincidences!

The best part of the weekend is that I finished my sister's log cabin , cat quilt! I have been working on it on and off (mostly off) for about a year! I am so thankful that I can finally send it to her!
