Sleep in Your Own Bed Retreat

 

Welcome 

We had another fun “Sleep in Your Own Bed Retreat” this past weekend.  Just in case you don’t know yet what a “SIYOBR” is ~ It’s a Friday evening, 6:00 til …… as long as you can make it.  Leave all your stuff.  Come back Saturday 9:00 am and sew until 5:00 pm.  All the while being spoiled with yummy snacks and meals, great company and best of all, time for yourself!

Enjoy some pics of happy quilters, works in process, and just plain ol’ FUN!!

knitter

 We quilters often have other passions! 

Kelli is also an avid knitter and she was knitting the most AMAZING ruffle scarves!  Of course I didn’t get a shot of the finished product to show you.  I’ll get one next month to show you.  We all wanted to place orders!  She may bring some next month…..maybe we can buy from her …… our fingers are crossed!

So where can you see this fabulous quilt and many others?  Check back in a few days and find out!

Mary did a fabulous job on this.  It’s so beautiful.  She’s working on UFO’s and boy is she getting a lot done!  She’s inspiring!

The studio is set up in 2 sets of 4 tables.  This is one side of the studio.

If you’re in the area (Salem/Keizer in Oregon) I’d love to have you for retreat or any class.  I’m going to be beginning a “Ladies Night Out”  that will basically be the Friday night version of the “SIYOBR”.  A time to get away to do what you love doing, enjoy great company, partake in some yummy snacks ……  I’m also there to be your cheerleader and help anywhere I can.

I’ll be putting out a new schedule soon.  Be watching.

Have a happy day!

Blessings ~ Terri
