The Pre-Retreat Day

Leanne is fabulous! I have to tell you that I am very lucky to get this bonus day with her. Have we done much more than talk all day? No, not really. She knit a little. I sewed the label on my Siblings quilt. The backs of the hoops are all finished. I sorted out the things I needed to take with me. We talked some more. It has been great.

Stuff needing to be packed.
And my fresh from Canada big box of freezer paper.
Ha! to the Bramble Patch and their prices!

While we talked, and talked,
Emily absconded with Leanne's laptop.
That photo app could keep her entertained for days!

All finished with ribbons on.
Ready to exchange with others.

See, the backs really are done now.
Oh, and a cheeky glass of pink sneakily showing itself there!
If I fail to post all weekend, take that as good sign, and complete lack of wifi. Laura will be here before lunch tomorrow and onto the motorway to London we will go. Woohoo!

  5. Enjoy your weekend - say Hi to Leanne from me! For future ref I got freezer paper here for £3.99 for a 50ft roll (which compared very favourably to some of the other prices I've seen)- http://www.quiltcraft.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Freezer_Paper_9.html - they also have reasonably priced Hobbs wadding.
