Nine members of our quilt guild went on a retreat about two hours from where we live. It was somewhat like a three-day slumber party. One night we played cards for hours then three of us when back to the sewing room and stayed up unil 3:30 a.m. working on our projects. One us was working on a twister table topper, we all contributed fabric and ideas about placement. We could sew all day in our jammies, if we so desired. It is amazing how much fun a room full of grownups can have without other grownups around. It is great fun, we are already planning another one.
