Keith's 30th B-DAY!!











For Keith's birthday we went on a long weekend trip to Hilton Head! Keith had never been to Hilton Head or Savannah. We were very lucky that we had some friends headed up there that weekend so we crashed at their family condo! On his birthday we drove up,with the gas shortage around here we ended up spending over a $130 on gas! Our friends Karen and Tim made us a nice birthday dinner with cake and ice cream for dessert. We laid low most of the trip and just hung out except for out trip to Savannah. We did a tour because I was sick of driving and thought that might be more relaxing. I learned lots of new things about the city but the highlight for was Fabrika. I found a Amy Butler fabric that I had been hunting for!! All in all we had a great weekend!

Believe in Yourself Retreat!









This was my first time going to a creative event that was based on fabric/sewing. The pictures that I posted ARE NOT my project they are the sample that we based our project on. For some reason I can't find any pictures but I will post when I am done. Here are more pictures and info for next year. I met so many kind people and the "teachers" were fab! It totally was nothing that was in my comfort zone! In the current copy of Sew Somerset is their project from last year's retreat! Susan's and Kristi's work is really amazing!I can't wait to finish my project it has a spot waiting for it in the living room! I hope that things work out so I can go back next year!
