Redsaltbox/Lisa - Yes we used the embellisher to attach everything in the flower part of the wallhanging. Here is a picture of the back of the wallhanging - I didn't embellish as much as some - I don't think it will all stay the way it is without stitching down the edges, so when I quilt it, I will make sure to stitch down the design :o)

Wow Littlebit, good job. I really like the vase with the flowers. And by no means is it too many pics. I am so disappointed when I sign on and there aren't any new pics to look at!

Looks like a great time was had by all. But that is true any time Eleanor and Sue are around. You never feel intimidated. They just make everything so darn much fun. Your projects are beautiful.

Thanks Littlebit for posting the pictures. I didn't take a camera. Littlebit was a lot of fun to be around. She needs a new name though! She finished all three projects! How about speed demon? All kidding aside, Michelle is a lovely person and I was very happy to meet her in person.

Susanna - in the picture of Littlebit and me, I'm sitting down and she's standing up!

I beat my son home by about an hour last night. It's so good to have him back! He's so skinny! Have to fatten him up some!

Speaking of fattening - they really put out the food while we were there! Continental breakfast, mid-morning snack, lunch and mid-afternoon snack. Water bottles, ice tea, coffee and soda's throughout the day. I think I gained 10 pounds! We had BBQ yesterday with corn on the cob, potato salad and baked beans. Yum! Wednesday was Italian Day with Lasagna, noodles with I think Alfredo sauce. Thursday was Deli Day and Thursday night was dessert night.

You sure were busy! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Never enough as far as I can tell. I love seeing the pics and hearing the stories. It is the only way I will ever get to go to a retreat or quilt show and meet Eleanor.
Hugs, Kathy

Hi Littlebit and Evie good to see pictures of the two of you together. Love the wall hanging. I finished my project from Paducah after I came home. There were so many people I prefered to visit. I love the embelishing it's beautiful.
