Sisters of the Heart - Part Two

Thought I would share a few more pictures with you from this weekend's retreat.

The weather was beautiful all weekend. Here's another snap of our wonderful view!



This is the main stitching room. I took this picture in the wee hours of the morning when the happy stitchers were all tucked away in their beds!



The group that I stitched with was in one of the smaller rooms. They will tell you that I wasn't there very much - gotta work the crowd you know!



Our stash of treats was very popular with those who had classes on our wing of the facility. All the important food groups were included: chocolate, caramel, other sugar treats, and salt...




Let's play a game of I Spy...do you spy the Vera bags and other items in these photos?









Four of the ladies in our room had a "Nova" day. A total of 64 blocks were conquered!




In keeping with the theme, I had some small gifts to share. My mom tatted small hearts which I tacked down onto a piece of wool felt - an instant needle keep!




Maybe tomorrow I will share with you some pictures of the projects that I worked on...
