Getting Ready and a Little Cleaning

I'm a very excited girl...I'm getting ready for a retreat with some friends starting Sunday...we're heading over to the beach to one of our friend's beach houses...we went in January and had such a good time that we decided we just couldn't wait until January to go again so we're going to spend Sunday to Friday together again...at the beach, sewing, laughing, talking, eating and just have a blast. 6 of the gals get to sew together regularly, and there are 2 of us that get to come too...I just can't wait...we have so much fun and get a lot done.  This time we're working on a group project...I think it has something to do with Kaffe Fasset fabrics...OH BOY!  you know me, that's way out of my comfort zone, but I'm up for the challenge...I'll keep you posted on what I do.  Today I got some essential things done...
these are must haves...hmmm, I wonder how many I'll get to empty. We don't have any internet there so I'll let you know what I got done when I get back home.

I also did a bit of cleaning today...I have a ton of wool and just don't have the time to get to it...so I made 2 bundles today and if you like them I'll make more...there's a lot of wool in these bundles and they'll be $35 plus postage...send me an e-mail and I'll send you my address...checks are fine...one of these days I'll get my PayPal set up...promise.  Blogger won't let me add anything else after the pictures, so I'll be back tomorrow.
Let me know if you'd like one of these bundles...brownquilts@gmail.com

I did a retreat last Spring and absolutely loved it. One at the beach with just 8 people sounds fabulous.
