Mini Retreat Day 2

 Today is the last day of retreat. We got breakfast in the hotel. It was pretty good. They really had a spread for everyone. 

Sandy V left about the same time we did. We headed to get coffee at Starbuck's and didn't realize we were 15 minutes late for the classes. When we arrived, they told us not to worry, they were going to start Q&A before we get started. They were running behind as well. 

Of course, I pulled out Blitz to work on. I had to take out the hands that I put in. Sandy V had the right color for the hands. So, I ripped out the stitches and decided I liked something else better. 

I worked on the head area today. I'm getting the eyes in and then I will fill in the head. Once that is done, I think I'm moving down the body. I'm going to make the wing a little longer than they are. We need to see the wings. 

We were chatting about the kite, good year blimp, rainbow and others today. The theme was things that fly (I believe). So, I'm going to work the UFO in with the others later. I have the fabric from last year, so I will put them on that. I'm not sure in what order yet. 

We had close to 20 of us. The two on the left came from Spokane, so they had to leave at noon. Sandy V is on the right side. 

Talented women. I had a lot of fun, and I'm sure the rest of us did too. We had a lot of breaks, but we also had plenty of time to catch up on each other. Loretta brought her butterfly to work on. I have so many different things from this, that I will have to find the time to put them all together. First, I need to finish the arms of the teddy bear I'm doing for the Round Robin. I need to get that in the mail. We finished around 2 pm and that was good for Patti to get home at a decent time. Sandy and Jeannette were one of the last to leave, as usual. So, we headed out. Got lost in Tacoma before we were back on the freeway to Centralia. Patrick didn't want to meet me, so Sandy had to drop me off. 

Patrick went to the casino and won $750 which was awesome. He came home with the gift as well. 

Once I was home, I unloaded and pulled out my tablet. We watched the shows that we usually watched on Saturday's. Then he went back to "America's Funniest Home Video's" which I am so sick of. So, I came in here to get my blog up to date. 

It felt good to be back at Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
