Ok so that not the wonderful part! It's Quilt retreat. For those of you not in the know, I'm in a quilt club, When we first moved back to Magrath and we were living with Mom and Dad, Mom took me to her ward quilting activity which happened twice a month. I was hooked. Anyway so just before the beginning of summer we have a quilt retreat. Really I call it a sleepover party. We stay out at Bro and Sis Mannings (who's house is the big huge one just out of town. So there's enough bed's for everyone. I'm the youngest person But i love it.

THey were in deep discustion abou this 1800's quilt that Donna inherited. All the patchwork and everything was all stitched by hand!! Holy cow I think i'm pretty hot stuff cause i can peice by machine i would quit if i had to sew by hand!
So this year for supper we have super enchilada's with a Mexican salad. It was so good. Then we got started on our project. This year we did "self Binding receiving Blankets and pillow cases that we are donating to a shelter. The blanket's were awesome. I'm excited to make tonnes more! They were so fun.
