Retreat Weekend At Vickery Quilt and Craft Retreat

Over the Queens Birthday long weekend I spent three days at Vickery Quilt and Craft Retreat in Alexandra with my quilting group - Connected Quilters. It was  a wonderful weekend filled with lots of craft, relaxation, fun and fine food.

I took two projects but was urged to start this one first. It is the "Northern Lights Tilda Quilt" - a kit using Scandinavian Tilda fabrics, by Norwegian designer Tone Finnanger, purchased from Tikki Patchwork in London.

It is like a medallion quilt with lots of borders around a centre square - some were quick, some took all day! There are still a few more borders to go ...
