Quilts Quilts Quilts!

This morning I slept in – the sun was already over the mountain.  We had a lot of entertainment last night and so the pillow was very welcoming.  I would love to share some of the entertainment, but what happens at a Quiltworx Retreat – stays at a Quiltworx Retreat!  (Well at least it won’t be printed here!)  We also had a very important history lesson – we all now know why George Washington chopped down the cherry tree!
