Retreat time at Seams Like Home with Jody Sterling of Sew Beachy Quilts
I was invited by a friend to spend 5 days at a retreat with her and her friends at Seams Like Home in Vanderbilt PA. It was nice to sit and sew and visit with old and new friends. I have been to this B & B many times, both as a guest and as a teacher. There is something special in getting together with a group of like minded people and catching up after a time apart. We had amazing weather, especially for southwestern Pennsylvania in February, not that it would have mattered anyway once we were safely there! The only time anyone left was to visit the B & B owner's quilt shop in nearby Untiontown, PA, Sew Special. We had good food that we didn't have to cook and lots of new projects started and older projects finished. There were a lot of meaningful conversations and more than a few laughs. We left exhausted but rejuvenated at the same time.
My friend, Jody Sterling, is the designer behind Sew Beachy Quilts. Make sure you check her out! https://sewbeachyquilts.com/

I am SO lucky!
I taught a couple of workshops at Sew Special, in Uniontown, PA on Friday and Saturday. I took a couple of photos, but can't upload them for some reason. I'll be dropping off my computer to have someone take a look at it and see what's going on, but I just had so much fun these past 2 days, I had to share!
The first class was on Friday and we worked from about 9am to 4pm. The class was small so each student got a lot of individual attention. After class, one of my friends, who came with me from Pittsburgh, and I got to stay overnight at Seams Like Home Bed & Breakfast. The B & B is owned by the owners of Sew Special.
When we got to the B & B, there was a group of ladies there who were all working on UFOs. My friend and I planned on ordering a pizza but were told by Rick Eicher, one of the owners, he would be serving a meal to the other ladies and wanted us to join them. We are so glad we did! The food was wonderful and the company was even better!
One of the ladies in particular I will NEVER forget! Ninety year old Naomi was such a joy to meet and so interesting to talk to I made sure to give her my contact information so we could keep in touch. I felt like I'd known her forever. I hope to be just like her if I reach my 90th birthday. I hope she gets in touch with me.
I will post a couple of pictues as soon as I figure out what is going on with my computer!
