Texas…
I’m leaving tomorrow for Texas and I’ll be spending time in Austin with friends! I’m going to a girls retreat; you know one of those sew, talk, sew, eat, and did I say sew? I can hardly wait! How long has it been since you’ve treated yourself to a little getaway time? Maybe you should! Get some friends together, find a place to visit and sew for the weekend.
So what am I working on? I’m going to embroidery a beautiful “S” for the center of my “Confetti“ quilt! My friend Nancy started making this quilt for me several years ago and she can’t finish the quilt until I’ve embroidered the center square. She’s sewed together all these little nine patches as a present to me and they are sitting waiting for the “S” to arrive. You’d think this was the Eiffel Tower I had to embroider, its taken me that long.
The end result will look very much like this, but I’ll have an “S” in the center!
All pink and white and yummy!
I can hardly wait to hang the quilt in my dining room ! How long can my fancy “S” take? Hey, I have all weekend.
I’ll be back early next week. Have a great weekend and I hope you get some fun sewing done too!
Hugs,
Anne

Your trip sounds wonderful! Wish I could settle on just one project when I go places to sew. Sure would make packing easier! Have a grand time in Texas! :) :)

Good luck with that “S”. Isn’t it the smallest of projects that can trip us up for the longest of times??
Hope you have a big time down here in my state. Fair warning….June in Texas is a little like visiting the surface of the sun! Keep cool and have a great break!

Anne I know you will have the best time. For the first time in my life I took a little get away to the beach with my girl friends (no husbands no kids) just a few weeks ago. It was awesome!!! Have a great weekend.
