Successful Retreat

proof of a successful quilting retreat
September 2019
From the posts this week, you can see that the last week of September was spent at Marilyn's house. We sewed nearly every day: our sewing machines were humming, and we had a good time. Her husband prepared most of our meals, which allowed us to sew even more.

In the evening, we worked on other projects: Marilyn cross-stitched and I knit. We also took a couple of evenings off to play bingo and to attend a musical production, and we played games.

Marilyn finished one quilt and started two others during the retreat. It's great to share a quilting passion with my sister.

  2. Sounds like you had a wonderful time - and obviously you got a LOT accomplished, along with the fun. They are all just lovely and will sure be appreciated by a veteran.

  3. Perfect! I love how even her husband "helped" with the quilts by cooking for the two of you. It sounds like a wonderful week for you both with other activities to break up the quilting sessions. So much fun! There is nothing like a sister is there? I sure love mine.
    Blessings,
