Hi All we have had such a good week here, so much fun and lots of hard work . I have two tops almost finished ,my problem I didn't have enough fabric cut fo finish ,so i will get them together when I get home , I purchased a really beautiful quilt from one of the shops call Almost Irish , the fabric is called French General and is beautiful . the quilt is designed by Rachel Griffith .I have started cutting the fabric bur again will have to sew it at home. as I will not be getting it down here ,it has a lot of log cabins the fabric is amazing and I can't wait to start .
We have a few members leaving today ,Nancy and Randy,Darlene and Larry , Bonita and Debbie later today to catch their flights home .The rest of us are here till Sat morning . It so sad when the retreat comes to and end .
We are not just real sure what we are going to all be doing today ,I would guess mostly try and get a little more sewing in.This evening we may play more strip porker and LRC, which were both tons of fun to play.
Sam ,Gini other half, has a beautiful hotel here and the staff have been wonderful to us. If any of you plan a trip to Branson ,be sure to check out the Stone Castle hotel ,It sit really high up on a hill and you can see so many things up here .and its close to all the great stuff going on here in Branson.
We will keep you all posted as best we can today since our Star Reporter is headed home today before the big Ice storm is suppose to hit up her way ..
EAT!! SLEEP !! QUILT!!
