Home Again! Home Again!

Ok, so when I committed to back to back retreats, I thought I had a week between them.
I did not. Gulp! :-o
So a quick dump of suitcases and laundry and repacking and I was off again!  I am so glad I prep, cut and plan projects ahead of time because I could grab and go this time. ;-)

My friend and I have been wanting to do some 'By Annie' patterns and this was the retreat for that! We had a lot of room to spread out and get our pieces all labeled and lined up~ and then the power sewing began! :-)
First we made the 'Running with Scissors' tool case. 
And it went together really well for both of us!

The fabric is red tomato pincushions! :-)

So next, we made the 'Take A Stand' stand up tote, a companion to the 'Running with Scissors' pattern.  I made the larger size.  Another fun sew!
We couldn't believe we finished both projects and still had another day and a half of retreat time!! :-)


Luckily I pack like I am going to be gone for months! LOL
So next post I will show a few more things I completed.

Until then~
Happy Stitchin'!!

Those are both wonderful and so nice that you could make something new while there. Can't wait to see more of your time at the retreat.

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
