Retreat

Post by Rose »

So I am very excited. The Cross Stitching Retreat that I signed up for start tomorrow. I started packing Sunday so that I would not forget anything. I have all three of my current WIPS so that I will have plenty to work on, my small Ott light and threads and extra needles and scissors.

The organizer sent out a message yesterday and asked if all the ladies would wear there stitched name tags so that everyone would be familiar with names, I was like :shock: what I don't have a stitched name tag so I quick made a pattern on my PC Stitch and I have been stitching it the last few days. Good thing I have a very short name as I picked a font with lots of color changes..... :doh: And the NHL playoffs are going on and hockey is the one thing that really distracts me from my stitching!!!!!

So this is my stern voice. You all be good. I will have my phone and will try to check in as best I can but I hate typing anything to long on my phone. Also the area that the retreat is at has spotty service. So you all be on best behavior, I do not want to come back and have to put ya'll in a time out...... :roll:

I will be taking my :camera: and plan to come back with lots of pictures. Good thing this is not in Las Vegas.... @rotfl: @rotfl: because I plan on sharing my pictures with my favorite stitchers. :D
