Sew Away Preparation

 Yes,I'm getting ready for the 

first sew away of the season.

Most of you know it as Retreat 

but I think sew away is similar to  

sail away and sounds like fun!

I love boating (really large boats),

so it makes it even more exciting.

It's time to dig out the UFOs and

organize the projects for easy sewing at Retreat!

The first one I found was a rainbow scrap project 

made  of color family blocks of two rows of coins.

I have a top waiting on the rack, 

made out of three 4 1/2" columns.

I'm calling this one a twosy.

There are lots of blocks ready

So up they go on the design wall!

Here are the nice bright colors of the first five rows.

My favorite size of 84" by 84" requires 

7 rows down in 11 blocks across.

A simalar top was  on a blog a few weeks ago , 

but the credit remains elusive! 

 I will update the post 

when it surfaces. 

So this lovely is now all clipped into rows and

packed up for transport! 

I have a few more projects packed up so now I am:

sorting threads,

winding bobbins, 

prepping my featherweight sewing box, 

and oiling the featherweight!

Now it is just coordinating travel and loading the cars!

Stay Safe and Sew on!
