    I'm actually heading out the door to a real-life quilting weekend in about 10 minutes. But it's a "sleep at home" retreat, so I'll try to check in when I get home. I have lots I want to accomplish - finish a quilt from my last retreat, make pieced borders for my swoon quilt, and maybe start a new project.

    I too have a three day week end and would love to join you. But we have a wedding to attend tomorrow and are staying overnight, then a attending a Sunday morning brunch for out of town guests and finally, hoping to spend a couple of hours with the DGD's in the afternoon, before heading home. I'll be able to spend a couple of hours at the machine today while I catch up on laundry (I hope!!) I'm working on a controlled scrappy Asian. Only 20 something blocks to finish!

    I have a baby quilt already glued and reading to tie, then, bind. Really want to get this done since I now have two other baby quilts to be done.

    1. make 2 child size Bow Tucks bags for 5 year old grandaughters
    2. Complete a Lone Star UFO, so I can begin to make one as a gift..need to work out the kinks
    3. Begin Neddlecases and Pincushions for a swap

    Off now to gather fabrics etc..See everyone in the AM

    How does a virtual retreat work? Do you have a special chat room that you use? Going to be out of town all day tomorrow and not sure what the rest of the weekend hold but do want to finish my Wild Thing project this weekend.

    Thanks for explaining to the new kid!!

    I'm in the FMQ stage of my first quilt - I need to be done or almost done this weekend but it's exhausting! I know I'm too tense, but the wrestling is also tiring. Anyway, I will be a quilting fool!
