    Oh how wonderful! You look like, well really, all of you look like you are having a beautiful time filled with inspiration. Will there be a retreat next year at this spot and how do I register! I so want to go since it is near to Greenville. Missed out on the retreat in Wilmington this year. And would love to go to one up north! God bless your fall season and happy stitching!
