Day One - April Sew'n Wild Oaks Retreat

 Hello Everyone,

It was a spectacular day in the mountains on Sunday for the start of the first Sew'n Wild Oaks retreat of the year at Snowflake Lodge.


The girls helped with set up, then we had time for a bit of lunch outside on the deck before the quilters arrived.

The Lodge just purchased new tables which they covered with a protective covering.  The room looked like an Italian restaurant minus the aroma of lasagna baking in the kitchen. 


After many hugs and renewing past friendships and making new friends, the girls got right to work.


The girls have a wonderfully large workspace so they can spread their projects out.

We left the Lodge at 5:00 and headed to my cabin for our appetizer dinner.  The weather was warm enough to eat outside.....for a little while.





This morning we will gather together at 8am and I'll start teaching around 9.  Brunch will be around 10.  We will quilt, laugh, eat, walk around the lake and repeat the entire process throughout the day.  Sew much fun!

Soon,

Lynn

  3. So good to see so many familiar faces!!!! The new table set up looks good and the floors should be easier to pick up dropped pins and needles ;)
    From lunch on the deck to appetizers at your cabin, Lynn, it's still the best place to gather!!!
