School finishes tomorrow so the girls went off to school this morning with their gifts to thank the teachers and school staff for a wonderful year. I also work at the school part-time so I also made some gifts for the people I worked closest with. This made for quite a lot of sewing!
Here are photos of the projects I made.

I am heading of to my friend Pat's cottage this weekend for 4 days of eating, drinking, reading, sun-bathing... oh yeah, and quilting! My quilt group is heading off for our quilt retreat. I think this will be the perfect way to start off my summer vacation... some well deserved "me" time so I can be well rested for whatever summer will bring!
I will be bringing a couple of WIPs but I am also bringing a couple of new projects I have planned just for the weekend. It wouldn't be a retreat without a new project after all! I am hoping to have a few finishes when I get back.
I am linking up to TGIFF over at
Pretty Bobbins. Please head on over and take a look at some other Fabulous Finishes!!
