Retreat!

I didn't get much done at the quilting retreat.
I couldn't drag my quiltin' rear out of bed long enough to do anything.
I didn't make it past 11pm any night we were there (nor did I rise before 10am any morning). Last night I went to take a "nap" at 9:30, fully intending to come back to my machine an hour later.
I woke up at 1:30 when Mom and Sarah came to bed, at which point, Mom said, "Don't you wish you could sleep through your whole pregnancy and wake up with a baby, like Rumplestiltskin?"
I said, "I'm not sure if I would rather wake up to a baby or a beard."

I'll show you the quilt eventually. It's gonna be cool. If I can stay awake long enough to finish.

    You got a lot of quilting done. It is going to be beautiful, and you have about 18 weeks to get it done. But who's counting! Thanks for including me. lovemom

  5. Glad you had fun at the retreat. Sorry I didn't make it up there. Next year YOU will be the one with the beautfil babe that hinders all your fun. Just kidding--I wouldn't trade it for the world (motherhood). And someday, hopefully I can A) learn how to quilt and B) come quilting with you! Thanks for the invite! :)

    Your quilt will be so cute!! I love the fabrics that you picked out. (I had good intentions of finishing the main part of my quilt yesterday, but ended up taking a super long nap instead:) Will I ever feel awake again???
