Great sewing space but I do so much fumbling and dropping I'd be forever crawling around under the grate retrieving seam ripper, scissors, pins, etc., etc, etc. LOL

What a lovely outlook. Thank you for sharing. Tassie is the only state I haven't visited yet. Definitely on my 'to do' list. Happy sewing!

Thank you for the picture. Winter is just starting here and your picture is a reminder that winter doesn't last.

We go there all year round, at least every month or so, although it is a 2-1/2 hour drive up a mountain. We will have 2 weeks there over Christmas / New Year period and spend nearly every weekend there during January / February / March.

Yes, I sew, read or just snooze my time away while hubby goes fishing or he is pottering around doing odd jobs. Since we have owned the shack (we have been going to this shack for nearly 30 years but have owned it outright for about 15 years), he has extensively renovated it, added rooms and the verandah.

A nice little quilt retreat, I could accommodate around 8 quilters quite comfortably

Hey fellow Devil

- yuk, you can keep the leeches, and I guess we will keep the roaming snakes, quite a few about already. Haven't been to Tomahawk but you are welcome to visit the lakes anytime and sit and sew on the verandah with me.
