A Weekend in Wisconsin
I just returned from such a fun weekend, sewing with friends, in Madison. Wisconsin has been a bit of an unexpected surprise for me. I live in Illinois, grew up in Ohio, have lived in Indiana. I'm used to seeing farms and cornfields. But something about the farms in Wisconsin, with the rolling hills...I really think it is so beautiful.
Plus, I love cheese. And there's no shortage in Wisconsin!
I'm really lucky to have a supportive husband who encourages me to take time away like this to relax.
Although we spent a lot of time in our little chalet sewing, we also spent Saturday afternoon checking out Madison. We got to see Jeni's apartment (basically where all her amazing design happens!)
And we shopped (a lot) at The Sewcial Lounge!
Besides talking and eating all the delicious food Deedee made us, I spent the entire weekend working on a stack of 140 little blocks.
These are the fabrics I just received from Modern Yardage plus some extras from my fabric stash.
I highly recommend organizing a sewing weekend with friends. I'm so grateful for these wonderful people near me!
Also, just a quick note that today is the last day of my big pattern sale. If you were thinking about getting one, this is your last chance for the 50% off discount. Thanks everyone!
