Because 'sew' doesn't rhyme with away... :) My DH & DS are back East to visit family for a week so DD and I have taken over! We have had three girl nights with friends over (great dinners, smores on the fire pit in the backyard & chick flicks) and now we've moved the dining room table into the living room and brought out two of the machines so we can sew together & watch TV & spread out the projects. Even the girl dog is hanging out with us... Hehe - this is fun!

Too bad I'm on the opposite side of the country or I'd join you.. My little boy dogngets impatient, so I'd ship him out to mom's..

I am so jealous. I love my three sons, but I always dreamt of doing things like that. Enjoy.

I'm happy for you (it sounds too fun!), but jealous, too. My DD & DIL would rather have root canals than sew so I'm up that old creek without a paddle. :(

Have extra fun for all of us who can't be there!!!

Yes, is fun. I can't get my three daughters or DIL to come near a sewing machine.

We just started a new tradition this year. My 4 sisters & I stayed at a resort for a week, 3 of us are quilters, so we brought our machines & project. We took turns making dinner so none of us had to cook more than 2 meals the whole week! It was awesome!
