Lewis and Clark and a Quilt Retreat

Before we left Boise a trip to Walmart was made to pick up various items needed for the retreat. We did want to bring a few items along for sentimental reasons. Who remembers Brachs candies in Grandmother Harrison's candy jar?

Day two began with a beautiful trip from Boise to Kamiah, Idaho.
The winding mountain roads combined with our audible book by Ken Burns about Lewis and Clark made history come alive.

Around four this afternoon we began the trek up the mountain to the Quilt House for our week long retreat. We found a Friends Church just a few miles from the retreat and the owner of the retreat attends this Meeting House.

We had received two mystery quilts in January and now were able to see a finished quilt. Shirley's includes 17 appliqued snowmen while Kay's has four snowmen and parts of a log cabin quilt. Can you find the picture of each quilt we are going to make? Our hostess Elaine has examples of a variety of quilts around the beautiful log cabin to inspire us as we learn different quilting techniques. Tonight we are listening to rolling thunder through the mountains and a gentle rain on the rooftops as we drop off to sleep.
