Projects
-At the retreat, the day is all yours. You're welcome to bring projects from home. If you're sewing bring your machine or handwork and tools (rulers & cutters), if you're crafting or scrapbooking, bring your supplies. We will have irons, ironing boards, and cutting mats.
I have 2 fun optional projects. Many have expressed interest in making these, so now's your chance.
These projects came about because Des has been preparing to be "Mimi" (grandma) long before those granddaughters were a twinkle in anyone's eye. For years, she just plugged along on her grandma toys and I (Corrie) would kind of roll my eyes.
Well..., here we are now with little ones and we want Mimi's house to be extra special with handmade treasures.
These projects are perfect for magical play at your house or as amazing gifts.
You'll be a hit at the baby shower or fa la la la - Christmas.

I Spy Panel or Quilt Kit
So we've been collecting fabric and scouring for the perfect I Spy quilt and we hummed & hawed cuz we couldn't figure out what it needed to look like.
And then I saw THIS - I Spy Panel.
I spy pancakes, do you? This is charming.
The panel is $7.15 (includes tax).
The quilt kit $29 (includes tax) includes panel, sashing and border fabrics and binding fabric.
There is a pink colorway and a primary colorway.
If you're going to work on this at the day retreat, I recommend getting the panel early and cutting your squares ahead of time. More tips on that, if you decide to do it.

Remember Mod Podge?
And wood blocks?
And the 3 Little Pigs?
This is a mod podge project. Your kit will contain 9 two-inch wood blocks, they don't have to be sanded, they'll be ready for you to podge. The kit will have the images printed out, a brush, use of mod podge for the day and if you want me to cut your squares ahead of time, I will if you let me know ahead of time.
Deadline to let me know if you're doing this project is Oct. 3rd.
Here's a tote I made for my blocks. There's all kinds of fun bags you could make. If you're interested in a kit like this, let me know.
