The retreat was great. I was exhausted, but I love the dedicated sewing time that I get at the retreats. From last week’s list: I want to start with the little fabric bowl that we learned how to make at the retreat. It was easy and fun, and finally an idea for Christmas. I have…

WIP Wednesday–Another Retreat Coming Up
Yay! I have another retreat coming up this Friday and Saturday. I plan, and have packed up, small projects to work on. These will be notebook covers, microwave cozies, coasters, and tissue covers. We are going to learn to make a fabric bowl with 10 inch squares while there. I look forward to that. Last…
WIP Wednesday–Baby Blankets
It’s late, but I didn’t like the idea of missing a week of posting. There is one more day of the quilt retreat. I have more panels for more blankets, but need to find backing and batting to make more. Last week’s list was to be for 2 weeks, but I will still make a…
WIP Wednesday–Quilt Retreat Next Week
I doubt that I will do a post next Wednesday as the quilt retreat is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. And, we go to family night on Wednesday evenings at the Methodist church. My plan for the retreat is to work on baby blankets. I have a large bag of fabrics and supplies ready to go…
WIP Wednesday–Camping Again
Hubby had a week of vacation added, so we are camping again. Just tonight and tomorrow night around other activities, but I am still very pleased. Last week I had these items on my to-do list: 6 of the 10 microwave cozies that I finished. The other 4 are already taken to my booth. I…
WIP Wednesday–Busy!
I’ve always been a busy person. Family nights have started on Wednesday evenings at the Methodist church again. This makes it a lot harder for me to find the time to put this post up each week. I didn’t post last week as I also had sewing group in the afternoon as well. My to-do…
WIP Wednesday–Rugs, Puzzles and Diamond Art
Rugs, Jigsaw Puzzles, and Diamond art is what I worked on while we were camping. The toothbrush rug I worked on some once we were home. I only had to work on crafts and sewing that were packed in the camper on my to-do list. The crafts got side tracked somewhat when I realized that…
WIP Wednesday–Happy Camper
We are starting our camping trip as of today. Yes, I am a happy camper. We are all hooked up and I’ve finished setting up and putting the rest of the stuff in here. I forgot the crochet hook size that I need to crochet scrubbies, and I forgot my toothbrush rug needle to work…
WIP Wednesday–Plugging Away
I am plugging away at looking thru stuff–bagging it for donation, or throwing it away. I am going to keep my to-do list for this next week the same as last week. I am adding to make pocket tissue covers. The rugs that I started this time last year are what I used for demonstration…
WIP Wednesday–To-Do’s
I think I did pretty well on the to-do list that I made last week. Before I get to my list from last week, I want to write about the camper. I have taken things out to the camper each day. I found yesterday that there are still 3 empty cabinets, and a whole shelf…
