It took no time at all for us to cover two tables with sewing machines, OTT lights and alcoholic beverages. We were evenly split: 3 Pfaffs and 3 antique Featherweights.
A Kodak moment. We decided to have afternoon cocktails on the lower deck.
It was a gorgeous day and the deck was wind-free long enough to enjoy one drink.
We're a funny bunch of six longarm quilters who have been friends for, like, ten years now. I came home with a beaded bracelet, a wee lunch box filled with sewing supplies, a new handbag, a lovely glass pear shaped candy dish, and a few extra pounds. I'm making Santa Fe Chicken for supper tonight since Carol Anne kindly sent out her recipe tout suite (that is French for quick-as-a-wink). During the week I went for two walks (on the lookout for rattlesnakes. Yes.), finished two blocks from the local quilt shop's $10 quilt, made a pair of mittens, and completed a Mile-a-Minute quilt top I've been working on for the past year. Oh yeah, I had to make the beaded bracelet. Also (with a bit of assistance) finished off one bottle of Pink Bikini-tini, one bottle of Smirnoff Grand Cosmopolitan, and one bottle of my home made hooch. Really though, I think what killed me was the night of the three cheesecakes. I'm now on two-meal days for a while until I can do my pants up again.
I see you had a great time - and you managed to accomplish a few things.
