Needle in a Haystack Retreat with Jenny Doan

[happy2travel]

We had a fabulous time with Jenny and Natalie this past weekend in Sherman NY. We stayed at Needle in a Haystack retreat. Jenny and Natalie taught us three project all day Friday. On Saturday Jenny and Natalie showed us all about how to use pre cuts at a trunk show.

My head was swimming with new information and projects I want to try. I have learned so much in the three day weekend we spent with Jenny and Natalie.

Here is a photo from our group shot holding our flag quilts.

How do you find out about this kind of thing? I would definitely go if there was one within driving distance.

Aren't they just so much fun. Very happy for you that you got to go, and had such a wonderful time. I think that anyone that ever has a chance to do a day with Jenny, should really try. She and her family are amazing people, and so fun to be around. I am so looking forward to going back to Hamilton this fall. (maybe sooner)

A couple of ladies from my Quilt Guild also went. In fact, one of the ladies in the front row is from our Guild. I also heard that NBC news is gonna have a segment on tonight at 6 pm, talking with Jenny Doan, and a couple of the other Quilters. How awesome is that!!!

Hard to believe - we were on NBC nightly news with Jenny Doan. The news clip showed our group at the retreat we attended. Great weekend - I have many fond memories.

It filled quickly, I was so sorry i missed out. I was in the LQS today and the ladies said Jenny was just great to work with and that everyone had a great time. They are hoping to bring her to Chautauqua sometime in the few years for their annual show.
