What do you usually take with you as far as sewing/quilting items? Is there anything you'd just hate to forget (other than your sewing machine)?
Do you usually take your own iron, mats, etc?
Any input is ap

Hi there. Most retreats are the same, YOu bring your projects with you, show and tell if you wish, things you need help on or something you'd like to show the rest of us. And your machine and supplies. Most provide irons, cutting boards, etc. Hope you get good ideas on here too. I got to 3-5 a year and take the same stuff but new projects. It's just that...a retreat. You do whatever you want, stay up as long as you want , play as much as you want, etc. And it's all fun.
