Hi everyone,
I was hoping to be able to visit again this time over Skype, but was not able to get through to Winewoman. She did call me on her way home and said she had a wonderful time. Sounds like you are a fun bunch of ladies. At times like this I wish we lived closer. With the high cost of a plane fair Skype is the best I can do ;) I am always available for Skyping. I guess for you all it is time to get back to the daily grind. I know Wine woman is looking forward to the next retreat!
Take care :thumbup:

So fun to see the pix - I knew you would have a FABULOUS time! Sure missed everyone....I was there in spirit.
Get my stitches out on Thursday, have a month of recoop, and then on to surgery #2. I retired for THIS?!

I had a great time as well! We missed all those who couldn't be there! Sandy, Sharon, Laurie, Jen (Happy Birthday!), Trish and a few more I've missed listing which I'm sure is because my brain is a little foggy today!
Thankfully I didn't gain any weight which I'm sure was due to the little walk that UglyCook and I took! :) The food was awesome, esp the Mzithra!
Lady Elisabeth, thanks for the books, you're awesome!
Get better Laurie!
Keep up the great work ladies! See you at the next retreat in May? Thanks in advance 2Doods!

Well, it will give me planty of time to get the binding prepared so I can get it on the quilt. If I need help hand stitching the binding on the back, I'm hoping I can count on my quilting retreat friends to lend me a hand if I need it. =) Off to bed now. Thank you all again for a super fun weekend!!
