2024 Pedal Pushers Retreat - Other Attendees' Projects

WARNING!!!  PHOTO HEAVY POST!!!

Welcome to another edition of Tidy Up Tuesday here at The Joyful Quilter blog!!  I'm here to share what other attendees of the Pedal Pushers Retreat worked on last week.  While attendance was down, there was no shortage of quilt projects to be inspired by!

Here's how the week progressed...

Monday - LOST!!!  Almost everyone who arrived had some trouble getting up the mountain.  The last part of my directions were incomplete/incorrect.  I arrived a half-hour later than expected, but remarkably, was only the 3rd person to arrive.  The last person dragged in nearly an hour later that I did!

Everyone got started on their projects upon arrival...

The only person to finish something was Tiffany.  Here she is with her new crossbody bag:

Tuesday - Day Two

Today she finished her new Kaffe jacket:

C2 had a date with Jack (the seam ripper) because she wasn't happy with her project from last year's retreat:

Tracey completed this quilt top, but didn't have enough of the border fabric to finish:

This was the place to find C2, morning, noon, and night:

Wednesday - Day Three

Tracey finished the top of her "Circle" quilt:

Annette showed off her completed quilt from last year's retreat:

Tiffany's hot tip of the day...

Apply double stick tape for zipper placement:

Carol finished the panel quilt for her border class:

Thursday - Day Four

Tiffany completed a zippered bag for gifting:

Tracey got as far as she could get on this quilt using rulers from Studio 180 Designs and will add the final borders when she gets home:

C2 brought this quilt for some added borders:

Controlled scrappy for a happy quilter:

Tracey machine basted her Hawaiian applique project:

Annette pieced blocks for a donation quilt:

Here is Tracey with one of her four blocks:

Tiffany completed another zippered bag.  This one is her class sample:

Tracey contemplated her final project on the design floor:

C2 seems happy with her scrappy borders:

Tracey packed up her machine and switched to her hand applique project...

While Carol worked on getting the ribbon borders assembled for her Elephant quilt and by the end of the night, they were ready for the custom fit inner borders...

And C2's quilt top was complete:

Friday - Day Five

Tiffany captured one more sunrise photo:

I grabbed a photo of her "car quilt" because I love it so and would like to make one of my own... someday:

While I missed the full group photo, I did get the last three quilters left at the lodge:

It was a wonderfully productive week and I was pleased to be welcomed back for the third year in a row.  Special thanks to Karen and Becca for making our stay comfortable!  If you missed it, you can find my projects in last weekend's ScrapHappy Saturday post.

Until next time...

RETREAT!!!
