Have you made your list yet? Well how about asking Santa for 2 or 4 amazing days at the Blue Bonnet Needle Arts Retreat? It is held at the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort & Spa, located in the outskirts of Austin, TX. This will be the 5th year and it is growing and getting better and better! I am sure that you have been very, very good this year and of course you could even treat yourself.

These were bluebonnets that were blooming 2 years ago. A really beautiful location!

Lots of stitching, great friends old and newly found, wonderful new stitches, lots of inspiration, delicious food, adult beverages and oooh so much more! It is held President’s Day Weekend and you can take a 2 day class or a 4 day. You should really look into it! There was a 24-hour stitching room last year, a little boutique where you could shop while classes are going on, a merchandise night with plenty of retail therapy, a banquet one night and so much fun that it should be considered illegal and immoral…

I finished a must do piece yesterday and even though that feels great, I really wanted to get much more stitching done than I did…but wrapping gifts and getting a start on my cards sorta kinda took my stitching time.

This is how you wrap a cat!

and until next time…keep on stitching
