This year's sewing retreat with my mother, sisters and some nieces was at Hilton Head, SC.  We had a time share for a week. Here is a taste of what we did.

Julia is one of the die-hard sewers.

June did mostly hand work for the week.

Jolene and Jillian added spice to our retreat by coming.

Mother is enjoying a quilt Polly made of Father's shirts.

The next generation is getting into this sewing addiction.  Dexter spent one day making a quilt top too.

This is the beginning of Clair's creation of a cupcake backpack.  She makes all of her nieces and nephews one of their choice. Check out her Russian  Stacking Dolls backpack on Polly's blog.

We did get out to enjoy the ocean a little every day.

Hilton Head Sewing Retreat


My Mother, sisters and nieces are at Hilton Head for a week of sewing. We sew, laugh, cry, share and have oodles of fun.
 

 We have been taking daily walks and enjoying the beach.


 Rebecca (my daughter) spent a long weekend with us.  
I sure missed having my other two girls here.


 Already making mistakes.

I will post more after I get home, because I don't have time to blog.  I need to get to my sewing.
