Blue Mountains Retreat - Day 1

We had a great night on Friday night catching up with our house mates and attending the cocktail night at 'The Stitching Post'. Saturday morning we headed up to the retreat to finally see what our projects were going to be. 

Our tables had these very cute table decorations and a bag with all our projects.

After spending quiet a lot of time looking at the designers beautiful displays and a little spot of shopping, I decided to make Gail Pan's table runner. I just love Lynette Anderson's fabric range 'Secret Garden' and thought that it would lend its self to this project beautifully. 


I must admit that a weekend like this, is very much a social occasion for me - I spent lots of time talking and not a lot of stitching but I did manage to get a few bits sewn on.


After a busy day of sewing, talking and lots of laughing, we headed back to our little blue house. It was such a nice day compared to the day before so decided to explore the garden.





Such a pretty garden with lots of beautiful flowers. Time to head back inside and get ready for dinner.

Until Next Time - Happy Stitching xox
