RMCQ day in the mountains

RMCQ day in the mountains

If you’ve been following my friend’s “Trading Spaces” adventure, I’m putting up the last of the pictures today on my other blog!

However, for Crazy quilt stitching people, I wanted to share one of our member’s homes…Mary Jo…she hosted the last meeting at her home up in the mountains (a GORGEOUS drive in the convertible)…and wow, what scenery. THEN we discovered all the lovely work she does and her doll collection (oooh, ahhh!)! All the work on the walls are her brazilian pieces and get a LOAD of that tree!

All of the stitching is hers….there were two full rooms like this and then more pieces scattered throughout the house. The quilt below was completely amazing tho…hand dyed lace with the dolls throughout the piece 3-D with dresses done beautifully. Amazing! Then there was the scenery (I would be inspire to stitch all the time out there!) This is where we had to sit and eat lunch…poor us, eh?
It was lovely and like a mini vacation! So quiet! You don’t realize how noisy the city is until you get way up into the mountains! Anyway, thanks Mary Jo for a ton of inspiration and fun!
