Finished Twister

Here is the finshed twister which was delivered to a friend today for her soon to be grand daughter. She loved it and said her daughter would too.It's always a good feeling when someone likes your stuff.

Just bizarre

Sometimes computer issues are just bizarre. I started the post Thurday or Friday about the retreat. As there is still an issue posting photos ( every one I tried to upload showed as the one of Fiona with spilled wine on her pants from last year), I just deleted the entire post. And there it was this morning!!!  I follow the links in my  blog list  every morning while drinking my tea and was totally surprised to see it.

3rd Annual Sewcializers Retreat.....

Our retreat was held last weekend at the Trail's End Lodge in Tobermory. We had 2 new members this year, Del's friend Donna and Joanne's friend Larissa. We had a great time, good food, good company and a lot of sewing. I did the main project, a Framed quilt but did not do the casserole tote or the folded Xmas ornament. We also held an Xmas dinner and Santa Sack gift exchange which was a big hit. We were like little kids. The weather was great Friday but got rainy and cold for the rest of the weekend.
