Rosemary’s 2016

It’s another January

which mean’s another quilt retreat to Rosemary’s!

In case you don’t remember, Rosemary’s is a quilt shop in Highland, IL.

Rosemary has a retreat center that consists of sleeping quarters & a sewing room with lots of authentic restaurants within a couple blocks; Chinese, Italian & Mexican to name our favorites, but there are many more.

A great weekend spent with good friends

(at least the ones that didn’t have family obligations to tend to)

& no cooking or cleaning.

 Loraine must have been shopping during this one…

My “spot” for the weekend.

 Spending valuable time with some of my other best friends

(Moda & Roxanne)

Making new friends

only after they promised to get along with my other friends.

It may appear that I bought the same polka dot fabric twice, but Rosemary & I were a bit chatty & weren’t paying attention to her measuring; a side affect of being in good company!

It’s OK, I’m going to cut it into little pieces just to sew it back together anyway.

(crazy!?!?!?)

(short) Overnight drying time…

My field of dreams, ahhhh.

Can’t get enough.

I hope you’re getting time to work on your favorites too.

Just keep sewing!
