Carol

Carol, today's featured retreat attendee, is our piecing queen. Piece by piece, quilt after quilt, she gets an inordinate amount of work done and each quilt is a delight to see - just like her winning smile.This is her "Chocolate Covered Cherries" quilt.
Next she worked on the wonderful border of this little quilt.
Every once in a while she would take a break to make a block from some BOM's she is doing. In no time at all she produced this table runner.
Lastly, she had a big container of hundreds of strips for a log cabin quilt. Quietly and steadily she sewed and ironed.
Carol usually hosts our Christmas and Spring potluck dinners. Her home is large and comfortable with a huge screened-in porch for the Spring dinner and a large dining table for our Christmas dinner. There are quilts everywhere in her home - red and green for Christmas and wonderful pastel flower quilts for Spring.
Carol is a retired school librarian. Her children lead very interesting lives and we love to hear the stories she brings to our group.
Tomorrow you will meet Lindsay............
