Girlfriend Getaway 2011

   Each year the shop hosts a sewing retreat, this year at Agate lake in Lakeshore, MN. We have about 25 ladies that attend to sew, talk, eat and have way too much fun! We have an entire pole building set up with sewing pods, ironing stations and cutting areas.

We bring a small sampling of our shop for the ladies to use, not a ton of stuff because the store is only about 25 min away. We bring kits for our projects, FQ's pre-cuts, notions and more. 

Deb has fun new classes our retreaters can choose to join. This year:

Mug Rugs

Selvedge Projects

Tokyo Subway map (color lesson)

and a Mystery quilt. 

Check them out!

We even went so far on our Tokyo Subway Map class to make a large queen size...96" x 96"

We are so excited to have a fun filled weekend. Complete with prizes for everyone!

    We have so much fun each year while sewing with a bunch or really fun ladies! I'll have more pictures to post as the weekend goes on. Now...off to retreat for mom and I!
