25th Anniversary of Nancy's Sewing Weekend

On our very first night in town -- a woman GAVE MARY THIS PONCHO. Made out of the disposable plastic shopping bags from "Nancy's Sewing Weekend"...it's Mary's 90-minute poncho pattern -- with her NAME embroidered on the front pocket...no kidding..

Nancy's Notions turns their busy warehouse into a RETAIL STORE -- for this fabulous once-a-year-event -- I took this picture from our vantage point -- early in the morning -- on the main "stage" --

Some of the very competent STAFF...having a good time with the rest of us...

Some early birds at our "Shop & Dine with the Ya Ya Sisters" event...

At the Ponderosa portion of our day -- we SPOTTED MISTY -- THE WOMAN WHO MADE THE PONCHO FOR MARY...

You sewing ladies are just TOO MUCH FUN...thanks again for playing our sewing game.
We had a GREAT TIME...and it was a delight to be asked to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Nancy's Sewing Weekend in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin...

    Hey Rita - Nancy's Sewing Weekend is the best! I travel from VA every year and the speakers, staff and town of Beaver Dam really make us "crazed sewing women" feel special. See you next year!
