Knowledge & Needles March Timberhouse Retreat 2011

After my  adventures in Arizona, I arrived home on Thursday night of the March Break week.  I unpacked my suitcase, did my laundry, and started packing my duffel bag and stitching bag!  I was hitting the road at 9am on Friday to go to the Timberhouse for our 2011 March Retreat!  I love these retreats so much that's it worth heading home a few days early from March Break.

So Friday afternoon 18 of us crazy stitchers descended upon the Timberhouse stitching and food in hand!  As usual I had a fantastic time.  Since loosing Cuddles I've not been in a picture taking mood so I have just a few shots from the weekend.

This is what greeted us when we went to Ann's for our lunch (made by Dan)

Hi Dani,

Ohhhh...you got the Ink Circles
chart from Nashville that I've
fallen in love with! I'm
planning on getting that one
sooner rather then later. I
love all the other new additions
to your stash collection too.
Pretty, sparkly fabric!!

Your weekend at the K&N retreat
sounds like it was, as usual, a
lot of fun. You must be ready
for a quiet, restful weekend
now though. Rest up well
because another stitchy weekend
will be here before you know it!

Cheers!

Your weekend at Timberhouse looks like it was a super time. I would have expected nothing less.
