This was my first retreat and, while I had been to the last four months of DMQG meetings, I only knew "the girls" from the meetings....so....I was a little apprehensive...."I'm new at this"...."I don't know them very well"...."what if they don't like me?"....."what if they freeze my bra?"......kidding but you know that feeling of going forward on blind faith due to a love of something?!
I'm sooooo glad I did. It was terrific....it was fun....the food was great....hospitality was wonderful....It was nice to laugh alot...outloud....and if you have ever been around Gina you will laugh....I promise.
Most of the "girls" in this group are younger...much younger than me....but so creative. As I told one of them, I am humbled and rejuvenated at their creativity.
I am finishing up a few projects that I started while I was there which I will post later. I think my table mate, April (Artsy Fartsy Designs) finished fifty quilts while she was there! :)
Sooo....I will definately be at the next Retreat....but I am still hiding my bra.
We loved having you!!! It was so much fun getting to know you better.
