Quilting Around the World- 2018 Retreat
Last year we announced this year’s theme with a game of quilters jeopardy.
    (1)      This country has a maple leaf on it flag and birds that migrate each year.
             What is Canada?
Use the Ultimate Flying Geese Tool to make “Follow Me”, “Snowbirds”, or
“Homeward Bound” from my new book “The Ultimate Flying Geese Book” due out
in April.

The geese applique (See bottom
                                           left) is optional.

                                           (2)    Canadian Geese migrate to the
                                           southern US or to this country. What is
                                           Mexico?
                                           The Mexican Star is a fun project that
uses a “peel back” technique to give the look of curved piecing.

   (3)   This country produces the most pineapple each year? What is Costa Rica

Use the Pineapple Trim tool to make “Pineapple Pinwheels” or “More
         Pineapple Pinwheels”

   (4)   This Country has the most annual snowfall.
         What is Japan
Snowflake is an oldie but goodie. I’m revamping this
pattern now so that you can use the most up to date
techniques to make the half square triangles and flying
geese.

(5 & 6) The Not So Mystery…. I recently did an online mystery on the Grids
     Girls page and am in the midst of a second. If you did not get in on the fun,
     you are welcome to work on one of these at retreat. “Curiosity” on the
     right and “Scrappily Ever After” (pic will be posted once this mystery
     concludes.) “Curiosity” uses the Cat’s Cradle tool, Strippy Stars Tool,
     Ultimate Flying Geese, and Pineapple
     Trim Tool. “Scrappily Ever After” uses
     the Ultimate Flying Geese Tool and
     Pineapple Trim Too.

And as always- you never have to make
one of the featured projects. You are
welcome to bring a UFO (Unfinished
Object) and work on something uniquely your own.
Patterns for featured projects will be available on my web site in mid-
June. Order yours and have fun choosing just the right fabrics for your
“Quilting Around the World” project. www.Debscatsnquilts.com
