Wow, what a great time I had with my online stitching group. Debra (me), Coleen, Vickie, Karin, Vicky and Katie at the Crumpet Tea Room.
Coleen and I drove from Indiana to Arkansas. What fun we had together, just talking away the whole 9 plus hour trip to Vickie's house. Picture St. Louis, MO arch.
We arrived at Vickie's house Wednesday evening. Vickie and her hubby was so nice to let us spend the night at there house. Thanks so much Vickie and Mark!
Thursday morning we (Vickie, Karin, Coleen and I) went to a drive through safari. It was so neat. We feed 4 week old tigers and saw lots of animals. Vickie's voice is still ringing in my ear. "Keep your windows up!!!"
We went to lots of cross stitch shops. At the Busy Needle they gave us a dying class. We dyed 4 pieces of material and 2 skeins of floss. That was fun and messy. But I have to say I think I came out the cleanest from that experience. LOL!
Katie, during the finishing class. I hope everyone enjoyed it. I made ring binders with page protectors, full of all kinds of finishing how tos, ideas and helpful hints. This took me months on end to get everything typed out and thought out so it would make since when they tried to finish something at home. Katie cracked me up when she said "This is worth a million dollars!" Thanks so much Katie it made all my hard work with it. :)
Vickie wins again!!! Two years in a row she has won "the most that had to frog on their projects at the retreat."
Picture taken in MO. It was so beautiful!!!
Katie passing us!?! LMBO!!! How did that happen. Oh we slowed down so they could. Tee-Hee!!!Can't wait until next years retreat.
