Recession retreat today!

Once a month my local quilt shop "The Yankee Quilter" in Seymour, CT has a one day retreat!  We all bring what ever projects we are working on and have a nice social sewing day. Sometimes it is potluck but usually just bring your own lunch. I am glint to put together my batik charm squares with the two black corners that form a star quilt. I don't know the name of it because I just saw a picture of it but no more info on it. I have it all ready to piece the top together, can't wait!  The squares are beautiful!!!

Yesterday I tried to make my own yarn out of wool with a drop spindle. Much harder than it looks!  I will figure it out eventually!  I bought the supplies from a nice lady at our local farmers market. She will be there next Friday too so I may have to go back for another lesson!

Well, I better go put my supplies together for the retreat!  I use my second machine so it stays packed ready to go. Just need supplies. It helps that we are in their shop and additional supplies are available!  Have a great holiday weekend!  Michele
