Toowoomba retreat

 Retreat weekend with the Sunday Stitchers....

Lots of fun had by all especially me.....

So watch out this will be a photo overload.....

We met at the Quilt Craft shop for a little retail therapy

then on to lunch at "Emerge" for a fabulous lunch...

this restaurant is a charity place to help troubled youth find employment and to give them work experience and skills to find employment.....

I was very hungry and forgot to take a photo of my lunch.....

It was super delicious and I will be going there again sometime in the future....

Here is the group ready for lunch....

The girls getting stuck into their sewing....


Heaps of show and tell over the weekend....





Marilyn organised a secret project for us to make and it was lots of fun....


A very useful little bag....

Thanks Marilyn.... it was great.....

There is always one silly person....
