Retreat Withdrawls

 
Hello Everyone,
 
Here are the "retreaters" in all of their glory on the last day of the Sew'n Wild Oaks retreat.  I miss these ladies, their companionship, and the laughter that continued for days!
 

 
I miss seeing their beautiful works of art.

 
I miss seeing their fabric selections.

 
I miss seeing their creativity.
 

I miss chatting with them each and every day.


I miss their sense of humor.


I miss the endless buzzing of their machines.


I miss the delicious food.


I miss the ladies who stayed with me at my cabin and our marathon slumber party.  We laughed until the tears were streaming down our checks as we talked well into the evening.  Then the talk and laughter resumed at the dining room table every morning.

 
I miss the beautiful Autumn weather and the setting of Snowflake Lodge.  We were surrounded by beauty inside and out.
 
 
I miss you all and thank you all for making this retreat so special.  I really miss the "chorus line" with those ladies who could really bust a move, and make Elvis proud.  If I muster up the courage, I will post a picture with a disclaimer that their names are to remain anonymous for eternity.

Love you all to the moon and back.

Lynn

Sew'n Wild Oaks October Retreat Day #3

Hello Everyone,
 
Lots of gorgeous pictures this morning from the activities yesterday at the retreat.  All of the girls were busily working on their projects throughout the day and into the evening.
 

 





 

This is just adorable!


Shelley made her blocks from the Patchwork Math book.  Gorgeous!



 
 Foundation paper-pieced houses was the lesson of the day.


Here's the neighborhood.




Beautiful Grammy Squares made by Laurie.


We say goodbye to each other after our group picture and brunch this morning.  Another wonderful retreat is in the record books.

Soon,
Lynn

Sew'n Wild Oaks October Retreat Day #2

Hello Everyone,
 
Lots of photos today about all of the activities that took place at the retreat.  Here's Paula's pile of Lil' Orphan Scrappy blocks.

 

This is what the blocks look like when they decorate the design wall.










Debbie made this wonderful pumpkin full of succulents for me!  It looks great on my Fall table topper.






Lots of seasonal hexie table toppers were created during the day.







These are Laurie's baby hexies for Grammy Squares.


I taught a couple of sessions yesterday to an audience hanging on every word!



Another beautiful, warm day in the mountains.

 
Gotta' scoot and get down to the lodge for another retreat day.  Wish you could be here with us.

Soon,
Lynn
