Mary Beth and Donna catch up after not talking for a couple of weeks. They talk about the severe weather in Missouri, their Tennessee retreat and a bunch of other stuff.

Today we talk about the recent retreat, if you could only have one, and using wide backs as top fabric.

Amid audio issues, we try to redo the lost episode. Still having problems but I'll keep working on it. Today we talk about quilt retreats and machine maintenance. Look for retreat lists (what to take) on the following websites.
