Day #15 (PALs Day 1)

Yesterday was the first day of the PALs Retreat. It was so nice to see the ladies I've gotten to know over the years. I also noticed a bunch of new ladies so that's always nice. We all chatted and said our hellos. Then I finally picked up my stitching again. I worked on my HAED Hope. Here is where it was at the start of the day...
Here is where I got after the day of stitching (in between lots of chatting haha)...
I'm so close to finishing the page. Hopefully today. If I can stitch more and not chat as much but I'm surrounded by wonderful women to talk to. Some of the ladies give awesome goodies...
 
So thankful for the friendship I've made with them. Well there is a look at the first PALs Day. I'm off to see what Day 2 brings me.

Chatting is an important part of all retreats - just wouldn't be the same without it. Nice progress on Hope and some lovely gifts.

Nice progress and so good to see everyone and chat. Definitely that helps keep it entertaining and you can get even more stitching done.

I saw you in a picture with my local stitching friend, Darlene, on FB yesterday. Isn't it fun to do retreats and be around so many women of like mind? Hugs!
