Four days sounds like a long time and that you will get so much done...in reality - not so much.
So at first I was only going to bring one small embroidery project and Roll, roll cottonboll. Then, well, maybe just another hand-piecing project. And well, I promised to make a sewing roll and a quilt for Q4L....now I have my car full. (This year I did remember to pack enough clothes and an extra blanket!)
Then there is the food. How can you sew without food? And what if we have another ice storm? So....two loaves of Sweet Potato Pound Cake, a pan of brownies, a large box of Ruby Linzer bars, and four bottles of wine. I do have a bag of salad too....
So I will be off the grid for a few days and hopefully will have some fun photos of finished projects to show! And hopefully I will still be able to button my jeans.....
btw...Dobby (new photo at the top of post) had his second set of shots today. He is 4 pounds 5 ounces...he is only 12 weeks old...

Have a wonderful time at the retreat. I was trying to follow what they were saying on the weather channel. I think it is supposed to be easing up for you a bit...hopefully.

I've got a new "grand kitty" in my life and finally understand the abundance of cat pictures on the Internet. Dobby is a cutie. I'd also like to pester you for that poundcake recipe. Hope you got lots of sewing done.
