Las Vegas–Day One

Monday was our first sewing day.  I forgot to take photos of my project but will do that today, along with today’s project.  We did get several gifts from other quilters.  First was a great tote bag, made by a family group that comes to the retreat.  There are five of them and they made these 25th anniversary tote bags for everyone.

Here is a new name tag – Barb made these for everyone.

Jan gave us each a little kit to make these table toppers.  She used fabric from her stash and almost each of them had some Mary Ellen Hopkins fabric in them.  Mine had the dogs.  I know have one finished project!

Jenny brought TimTams from Australia and gave a whole package to us.  She brought several other packages to share so we are hoarding/saving ours.

Next was a pin keep.  Very cute and simple but wonderful.

I did work on the quilt project most of the day but since I forgot to take photos, here is one of Robin’s project so far.

Robin is teaching today so hopefully I will have more to show later today or in the morning.
