I’m having severe retreat withdrawal symptoms today…. I had such a good time sewing last week, and now I am home missing the “5 star treatment”, lol!
Last Week’s This and That
Well, as you know, I was at Judy’s last week on a “not-retreat”, but really, any time you get together with others to sew is a retreat of sorts, right?
Other than working on churn dashes, I got the next Beautiful Days Mystery Quilt blocks done:
Do you like Judy’s “design wall”?!
I also got the RSS Sewalong picnic quilt rows sewn together:
I got more pics to share of last week, but will do that in another post in a few days…
Oh, and the week before last I got Myrtle ready to applique 🙂
I only have one more chook to do and then the applique process will start!!

Monday Menu Plan:
I put a grocery order in today from Woolies which will arrive tomorrow… I generally get my groceries delivered, I started even before the pandemic. I like being able to just pop things in and out of my shopping cart and see how much it all adds up to. So my menu this week is based on what I already have in the pantry and freezer, and what was on special….
Monday – Leftovers
Tuesday – Cottage Pie
Wednesday – Chicken and Spinach Casserole
Thursday – Leftovers
Friday – Fish Casserole
Saturday – Roast Pork
Sunday –Leftovers
I think that is it for today… I need to go and finish unpacking,,, Nearly everything has been put away… just some odds and ends in my suitcase…

Looks like you had a very productive time at Jude’s, on your non-retreat.
Myrtle looks like a friendly chook.
I so wanted to join in on the Beautiful Day Mystery….and when I could sew again (broken wrist drama) I couldn’t find the kits available any more! I haven’t given up , though!
Looks like you had too much fun at your not-a-retreat Joy.
I like Judy’s design wall! 😀 Your Beautiful Days quilt blocks are gorgeous. I really like your RSS quilt. I am going to try to piece together a backing for mine today. Enjoy the rest of your week!
I imagine there must have been a great deal of laughter happening while you were visiting. And yes, I like that design wall which is much easier to deal with than mine (the floor).
sounds like a wonderful time at Judes
