We are in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee near Pigeon Forge for this annual event.
Snow and ice were on the steep drive to our cabin.
A nostalgic moment.
Barbara made this quilt from Father’s pants. Mother said he never wore jeans.
Not everyone brought sewing projects to work on.
A story???
Ashton took me on a steep walk all the way around the cabin.
So, where is everyone?
… Oh, there they are!
Some of the cousins from the next generation are sewing right along with us.
Polly finished piecing her Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt, Celtic Solstice.
Emily and her “Disappearing 9-Patch.”
Cheryl is having fun making a “string” quilt.

Thank you, Julia, for that wonderful glimpse into your quilt retreat! You know I always love seeing what you all are working on and finish up! Please say hi to everyone for me.
Such a talented family! Those beautiful mountains would be a wonderful inspiration for any sort of artistic endeavor, and when you can do it in the company of those you treasure -- well, it wouldn't get any better than that!
Enjoyed your post, Julia! It is always interesting to see the results of all of your creativity.
Your quilting retreat looks like so much fun! What a beautiful family you have!
How wonderful it is that you have this yearly quilty retreat with your family! It warms my heart to see the tradition of sewing passing on to the younger generations.
I think the photo of Ashton on your walk about the cabin would be a wonderful art quilt :o)
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie
