You would need drinks and snacks if I shared ALL of the photos I took, so here is a tase.
Our mugs this year show beautiful Aussie critters.
I got a Roo and her Joey.
Our project this year was a bit of a mystery,
until the surprise guest explained...
We are to make a Kawandi quilt.
There had been rain, so the camp was looking green.
There were also mosquitoes!
But we still managed some outdoor photos.
I worked mostly on my down in the garden stitchery.
And was able to complete the stitching on one block, here it is next to Jenny's Sunshine and Lollipops block.
Dress up night was Winter Wonderland. There were some amazing costumes.
This pair were perfect.
And of course there was the gift swap.
I scored this amazing woven fabric bowl.
Along with some soap, a lens cloth and chocolates. Thank you Linda.
Raewyn received my gifts.
I had used French General fabrics to make a big tote bag, a zippy pouch and needle keeper.
There is more to come.

Looks like a fun time was had by all!
You had a great time at retreat..
It was a fantastic few days. Can’t wait to see all the Kawandi projects next year
You all sure know how to have fun. How great that Jo was there!!
Time with mates is always good... do you fly with your machine or is one waiting for you?

It was a great weekend
It looks like a great time was had by all.
I thought the penguins were very clever! and that basket is great.
Great basket and the swap you gave Raewyn was fantastic as well. Wonderful stitching you have done, enjoyed the photos.
It was such a fun few days. Your swap gifts were great. So much fun hanging out with everyone.
A lovely succinct summary of SS. There are always so many different enjoyable elements to Scrub Stitching - it seems very 'lacking' to just call it a quilting retreat - it's such a cup-runneth-over week, isn't it?
Oh and I love my swap gift, too! Thank you ♥
