What a wonderful weekend we all had! From afternoon on Friday to early afternoon on Sunday, we quilted, ate, laughed, talked - and even slept a little! I came home with a new quilt half-way to completion - sure couldn't have done that without the uninterrupted time.
As to why go on retreat- well, it's not just the time to quilt, nor just the time to spend with quilting friends - it's really the feeling of leaving my "normal" life behind for a weekend and indulging myself. I truly believe we all owe it to ourselves to give ourselves this kind of gift periodically - we deserve it! What better way to spend this time than doing something we love with folks who feel the same way.
We were sad to hear that the retreat centre is due to close at the end of May- too few sisters to maintain such a huge, expensive complex. So- the search needs to start to find another spot to call ours for retreat weekends.
The photographers among us will be posting pictures - enjoy!
