Hello! This is me

Hi there, my name is Catherine and this is me with my two daughters (this is about the only picture I like of me!)
 
 
I am really looking forward to the retreat.  I went last year but only for the Saturday and it was really overwhelming, in an amazing way.  I met new people and people that I chatted to via the blog. 
 
Since then I have joined two bees, one of which was mooted at the retreat and then became a reality.  These are the two quilts from those two bees: 
 

I can't thank my fellow bees enough for these and I am really looking forward to meeting some of them for the first time at the retreat.

I have joined in with a lot of other quilters and made a Siblings Together quilt, which I will bring with me to hand over.  I made it with a jelly roll that I won in the raffle at the retreat last year: it seemed fitting that I was able to make a ST quilt with my winnnings


 And this is my other quilt that is in progress: my double wedding ring, hand pieced from all my tiny scraps
So, I look forward to meeting you at the retreat and making more new friends and discovering more blogs.

    Love your quilts, especially the double wedding ring! And it is lovely you used the jelly roll you won for a charity quilt. See you in London! :)
