Glenrose retreat with the girls.

Our retreat begins with packing.....

heads.... check

sewing machine....check

Zucchini slice... check

Such a beautiful place to have a retreat and craft shop.

We are always greeted with freshly made scones and a cuppa....

Our first outing was of course coffee and cake at Bryson's.

We need to introduce our new ladies to the sites of Warwick....

we are soooo thoughtful.

Salted caramel slice for me...... sooo yummie.

Sandi gave us all a goodie bag, what a lovely surprise.

there were Mini Oreo treats but they are all gone now.

Thanks Sandi ....

Yes I did do some sewing..... this little lady needed a body....

she is all tuckered out from all that stuffing....

Food is a large part of our retreat..... our first meal together.

We each brought a plate and it was all great healthy food until the desserts came out...... boy oh boy were they good.... I didn't get a photo of them so you will just have to believe me.

While we were sleeping these naughty little girls had a high old time....

I feel soooo ashamed of my doll but fortunately she did pull herself together and then behaved as any self respecting lady should.

I think it could have been Jenny's doll that led my girl astray.....

I should be sewing really but playing with dolls is more fun.

Meet "Little Miss" an Annie Smith pattern.

This little bag was a kit I bought when I visited New Zealand last year.

A fun bag to make..... I bought it from "Annies Country Quilt Store".

We found a new place to eat and shop as well....

Warwick's Gardens Galore and enjoyed a wonderful lunch

A farewell photo .....

also a last coffee and cake at Bryson's.
