Retreat

The Getaway Girls were at Boonah again this past weekend.  I arrived late as I came straight from work.  I stopped off to buy some red medicine
 - and very nice it was too
 I took my Featherweight to put it through its paces
It sewed like a dream.  I worked out how to wind a bobbin, put the bobbin in, thread the machine, reverse stitch.  I sewed this entire top by morning tea Saturday
I then sewed these blocks that I had cut some weeks ago
 
Altogether I sewed 44 blocks.
Saturday night was dinner out - at the Dougandan.  Coming back to the unit, Margaret and I enjoyed some more red medicine
 
I finished the blocks by Sunday lunchtime, then started sewing some 9 patches
I had my little sewing friend on the table...
