Just Catching Up
OH I've been busy! Have a few finishes to show and I got to go on a couple of girlfriend retreats. Life is good!
Last week-end I went with my quilting buddies on a retreat to Menasha Wisconsin. My husband says I shouldn't call it a retreat ~ it sounds religious ~ I told him it is a retreat ~ it is so good for the soul!
Here is where we slept ~
and here is where we worked
Sorry I didn't take more pictures but it was a great get-away. I worked on Prairie Bound by Country Sampler. Here is a picture from Country Sampler's website. I will post a picture of the quilt when it is all together.

We got a lot of quilting done ~ enjoyed some long walks along the lake ~ had tons of giggles and just great girlfriend time.
And the very next week-end I went to a Cross Stitch Retreat hosted by Inspired Needle in Lemont IL. We stayed at the Farmstead Inn in Shipshewana IN. We had a great time! We shopped ~ we laughed ~ we ate ~ we laughed some more ~ and we even stitched a little! I didn't take any pictures but go here and here to see a couple of great posts about the retreat. And here is what I did work on ~ Fancey Blackett
And now for my few finishes!
