Quilter's Retreat

I went away for the weekend-- to a quilting retreat, with my inner circle of sewing friends and others. We laughed too hard and slept too little and got a whole bunch of sewing done. We made new friends and we enjoyed each other as we all sat and created in near bliss. We sang songs, we ate chocolate (duh!), we teased, we admired each other's work, and helped each other make decisions. We talked and talked, and talked. I was only 8 miles from home and yet a world away. As one first-timer blurted out at one point "I am just so happy here!" And indeed, we all knew how she felt. I'm home and in withdrawal-- nearly cranky about it as well! I cannot wait for the next one. Green Acres IS the place to be! If you know what I'm talking about, you must have been there!
