The retreat ranch where we're at is a lovely Southwest style house in southeastern Arizona. We're at 5000 feet elevation, so the weather here is much cooler and more pleasant than in Phoenix. There are nine of us and we have a large sewing room, comfortable accommodations, fantastic meals, and happy hour out on the patio.

It's fun to see the projects everyone is working on. Here are some of the design walls. These photos were taken over three days and some projects progressed farther than this. Photos of people and projects are posted here with their permission.
