I was sick a few days before so this retreat ended up being a little different than I originally planned. My friend ended up not coming since I wasn’t feeling well and wasn’t sure what my attendance would be like. And since I wasn’t feeling well, didn’t feel up to tackling the opportunity quilt for my guild.

I also didn’t bring all the stuff and projects I normally bring to a retreat -even a mini one. What I did do was bring two projects- the William Morris mystery BOM from my LQS Quilt Emporium and the Jane Austen 250 Years new start.

I was able to get over my PTSD and tackle the June block of the William Morris quilt a long.

I also started the July one but didn’t get it finished.

I started the Chawton block for the Jane Austen quilt but didn’t take any relevant pictures. I just prepped the first three sets of pieces necessary for the appliqué.

Below is what was the game plan that I ignored because I wasn’t at 100%. I’m keeping it so I have it handy to reference for my next retreat.
