Lori C and I flew to Chicago for a fun long weekend at a sewing retreat. This was a first for me, and it was awesome! The retreat was hosted by Sara Lawson of Sew Sweetness. We ended up making a Necessary Clutch Wallet (day one), an some Crimson and Clover train cases then next 1.5 days.
We were walking distance from some nice places to eat. Our first evening, we wandered over and got a nice salad. We then went to the hotel lobby to meet the others there for the retreat.
It really was great fun!
The sewing room was open until midnight each night and we used every bit of time. It was cool that there was a room set up with a bunch of Bernina machines, irons, and other necessary equipment. We just showed up with our material (precut and interfaced) and got busy.
Another treat was meeting Janelle McKay of Emmaline. She's lovely - as were all the other people who attended from all over the USA.
