Becky's Barn Retreat

Just got back from a great time at Becky's Barn in Grimley, TN - best quilting retreat facilities anywhere!  We had a wonderful time, there were 9 of us and we had a blast!  One of our quilters has a friend who is a retired extension agent; she came one day and demonstrated a fun project and then gave us a trunk show!  Double Fun!  We also visited a local winery, where I found out that "Wine can take the Bitch right out of me!"  Of course there was lots of fellowship, sewing, eating and shopping - does it get any better?  I think not.

Here are a few pictures from retreat (there are only a few because I was too busy having fun to take pictures!):



Margaret made Mary the cute apron - it has choir ladies on it!

Becky came and visited with us every day and let us into her shop - so much fun!  Becky is an amazing long arm quilter and the Barn is filled with her quilts, a real quilt show in itself.  I got to talk with Becky a little bit about her machine, a Gammill, (yeah!) and enjoyed "picking her brains".

The Barn is set up perfectly for quilting and the sleeping arrangements are just right.  Can't wait to go back!
