Sewing Retreat Accomplishments

I was blessed to spend a weekend just sewing. No kids, no cooking, no breaking up fights, no screaming....just relaxing sewing time with some great friends and some great movies and music. Oh!! I did I mention that one of the ladies LOVES to cook so she cooks all the meals for us!! Love it! I highly recommend it to anyone! I managed to get quite a bit of my quilts done.  I forgot how time consuming it can be, but it is worth it in the end!

Here's a peak at my daughters quilt. Too bad I only have my old, and not good good camera to take pictures with. Maybe that will be one of my Christmas presents, a new 35 mm lens for my good camera , as taking pictures with my 75mm is kind of hard to do inside a small room! The quilt actually has NO red in it! The red that you can see on the polka dot print is fuchsia. 



Jarrin has the manly outdoor print. I can't wait for him to see his!!
He LOVES fishing. He even pointed this fabric out at the store and begged me to get it for him, so he will be happy I am sure of it!

I did manage to get a dress for Keeley sewn too. I LOVE sewing! I can't wait to finish all my Christmas sewing for all the kids!!
Thankfully I will get another weekend to get as much as I can done in a week and a half !! YAY!!
