Cobblers in the Woods!

Sister Jana hosted the Cobblers this past weekend in the woods! it was a great time as always! with fun, food & friends!
Auntie Mary made this wonderful Cobbler welcome!!
 as soon as i got there i went up the stair-way for a couple pictures
this cozy set was our grandparents who had a cabin in this exact same spot!

hello Cobblers! Auntie Pat and i are here!
Auntie pat had gone out to California to visit Cobbler Beth and
ended up in the hospital with double pneumonia and tested positive
for the flu! she made it back home to Minnesota! and is on the mend!


auntie Mary, Joyce and Carol had been busy Friday night already!

Auntie Mary was needle punching the lake!




Breakfast of course was ready for us!
and the Cobblers were busy!

Carol was helping Joyce with a project using family clothing


and then there was lunch!

auntie Mary was working on a quilt of ND sports colors
to sell at market this spring!


some show and tell!
Carol the wool queen, oh my gosh!



Sister Jana, Carol P & Auntie Mary are all
working on quilts (same pattern)
showing progress every-month we meet



i was hooking! 
but soon realized the kit i had didnt have
enough wool no matter how loose i hooked!
(does anyone else have this problem?)
will have to look in my stash to do the rest of the flowers
and add to the wool for the watering can....
