I am almost finished will all my preparations and will be shipping all the class materials in the next couple days. I was excited to have the binders done today, but of course, I run out of toner for my color laser printer and no one in the city has it in stock, so now I'm waiting for a delivery tomorrow or Tuesday...ugh....nothing like cutting it close! For those of you attending one of the Mystic Retreats, you are in for a treat - lots of fun things are planned...and I may have a surprise or two. I can't believe I leave in a little over a week - seems like just yesterday Sue was inviting me, and now the dates are almost here. Tommorow I will be deciding which models to take for the marketplace...and which charts to bring along - this is always a tough decision, because obviously, I can't bring them all....then it will take a few hours to get everything ready for shipping. Whew...so much to do, so little time!
I did find a little time to start appliqueing my table runner - I have about half of the snowflakes done, so I will have another update for you soon. I also managed to stitch a bit more on my Blackbird Designs "Winter Wonderland" - yep, I got in about an hour of stitching on it late at night when I was having difficulty falling asleep, so I will get an update posted on that sometime this week, as well....
Oh to have 100 finished ornaments!!! I have so many to finish, but I also have 5 trees that I put up...:) Here's hoping you get one this year...and your ornaments are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTerrific ornament finishes, Belinda! I think you need a few more of those wrought iron trees from Longaberger and put your ornaments on them!
ReplyDeleteGlad your Mystic preparations are almost finished! Enjoy your time quilting and stitching!

These are so cute! Wish I could attend your class. Finishing techniques would be a great topic to learn.
ReplyDeleteOne hundred finished ornaments? Knock off a zero and that's how many I'll ever have finished,lol! They all look beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty. You must get a tree
ReplyDeleteThey are fabulous, Belinda! I'm in the Christmas panic trying to get my 25 ornies done.
ReplyDeleteO WOW 100 ornaments! I'm working on only 36 christmas stockings and I thought that was a lot.
ReplyDeleteI like them, if you only could give classes in Holland...
Those ornaments are great, Belinda! You must get a tree or find some way to display them this year! Have a great time at the retreat. Know your students are going to treasure their experience.

Love the ornaments. Find myself very much liking the tree! Did laugh as I know you don't have a tree. I'm still thinking a nice piece of garland along your staircase railing would look great! Lorrie
ReplyDelete100 ornaments - you have to get a tree. It would look so beautiful. As someone who is attending the retreat, I can tell you I am so excited. I can't wait.
ReplyDeleteThey're adorable!
