What We Retreat To

Last year, I took matters into my own hands. I researched religious retreat centers, with the criteria that it be affordable, serve food, have enough electrical stamina to accomodate at least eight sewing machines and an iron and could house the same number of people. I found one within two hours of my home, gathered seven women and sent off a small fee to secure the weekend.
It was a success (although one members' back went out and couldn't come :(!
The facilty was fantastic.


Spacious, clean and charming, the center even had good food! Maybe I should say; great food, made even better because I didn't expect it to be half as good!
We each worked on our own projects, stayed up late into the night, had great conversation and fed our creative souls. Removing extraneous distractions and focusing on the creative task at hand is a luxury that every artist must attend to!
We booked three more retreats that lead us well into 2005!
Thank you, Elizabeth, Judy, Joanna, Kevan, and Brienne! Get better Beth and join us in November!
I feel so charged!
I also got the acceptance letter from the NSQG show that the piece I worked on all weekend has been accepted into it's May show!
