Retreat Time!
Hard to believe it is already a week since the Camp Pioneer Retreat! The Camp sits on the edge of Lake Erie. I had some nasty cold virus then until about yesterday, so I am really behind. The entire weekend I spent on paper piecing Sea Urchin by Judy Niedermeyer. I did not make fast progress. It is really time consuming. I still love the fabric, so that is good. I only got the arcs for the biggest circles done minus four. The trusty, robust SInger 301 blew through it all with abandon. I bought one of those teeny irons so I could press right in front of me and trim. It is a nice hot iron and I don't use the steam.

Paper piecing takes so much time but is fun once you get started on it.
I love paper piecing. Can you imagine making these units without? Crazy!
The view is amazing - how do you get any sewing done with that view?

WOW. I love it! Must have been some fun. Does it happen every year?
