This is just one of the things I Love about The Midnight Quilter...NOTHING she won't tackle and make it look easy. Retreat is on my bucket list and I would fill my bag with rotary cutter, mat, and MOST importantly my seam ripper!
This quilt is stunning! I think they can't get any more amazing and they always do!
My quilt retreat bag would include: pins, extra sewing machine needles, rotary cutter and folding mat with pressing side, travel iron, seam ripper, disappearing ink and chalk (I'm old school that way), my fabric scissors, wonder clips, wrist pin cushion, pattern and templates, quilting gloves, measuring tape and quilting rulers- and of course a notebook! I like to take notes while I'm making a project whether it be a quilt or something else so that I can remind myself of things that worked/didn't work throughout the process. Of course some gummy snacks (sour patch for me) and nuts for energy and protein because phew!
Thank you so much for your amazing show- as always. Can't wait for my preorder to come to work on my FMQ 😬😍😘
Taking notes is such a great idea! I always think that I will remember, but of course, I never do!
I never thought I would enjoy watching a quilting video as much as I enjoy yours. Your humor and the content are excellent. You put just enough of your cutting and sewing in to get the point across. Point get it haha. I've never completed a quilt, but you have inspired me to do so. Thank you so much Wanda P.S. The fact that Outlander is your favorite audio book make me love you all the more. Happy Quilting!
I love Angela! I would pack safety pins, markers, small iron but most of all post it notes and a small notebook. Can't live without those! Cant wait to see more episodes.
Angela, you have to be the funniest quilter I know.... We don't know each other, but I feel I do having watched all your tutes... I just love you, cuz you are like my twin.... LOL... I wish! Keep up the great Tutes. Can't wait for the next one. HUGS!
I have just bought fabric to do my very first quilt, super excited! unfortunately my daughter is only 8 months and just because its midnight there is no guarantee that the house is quiet :( but she's going to have to learn to sleep through if she wants a quilt!
As i'm a complete newbie i not sure what i would pack in my bag, probably safety pins and duck tape as in my eyes they can fix anything!
Thanks for a very inspiring show!
Love seeing this quilt come together and your quilting. The wavy lines........It's just what I need to finish the quilt that has had me stuck!! Needles and thread.......the absolute must for a quilt retreat.........and yet I have forgotten them in the past!!!!!
Your shows are a real pick me up. You make it all look so easy. What a fab accessory. That should hold everything for classes, guild sew days, quilt bee sew days and of course retreats. All in one bag would be such a treat.
I love this give away! Have to remember to pack my ruler, rotary cutter, and I'll need to get a folding mat. What a beautiful quilt.
The folding mat is pretty awesome! I like to use it when I am sewing on my kitchen table. You know....when I am supposed to be watching my kids lol
This giveaway is wonderful!! I have never been on a quilting retreat but I have a few sewing sisters and we get together a couple of times every month and sew all day. This bag would be great to pack my supplies in for the days that we meet. I would pack: thread, pins, rotary cutter, rulers, my special Harry Potter fabric (that I hide from my kids lol), and my best friend aka my seam ripper! And of course a snack...brownies! Love the Quilt Angela!
Ohhh....why didn't I think of brownies?!?! Those are definitely the most important retreat treat :)
We have a great time at retreat, sewing, laughing, eating, drinking, snacking and being Merry. We even get stuff done... Love your show
Angela you are too funny, don't ever change. I just love watching your videos. I get a week's worth of laughter out of each episode. I love quilt retreat time, just had 1 in August. Must have supplies: Apple Dapple Cake, top priority (requested each year) and of course rulers, scissors, bobbins, needles, etc. That Yazzii bag sure would make packing those supplies, minus the cake, so much easier. Thanks for sharing your talents.
I have never been on a quilting retreat but i have a feeling there would be some fort-making involved 😉
I would use the carrying case to hold my sketch books and drawing supplies as i go out to find inspiration for my latest quilt motif
😊😊 That is such a beautiful quilt! I would LOVE to be able to make one as lovely as that one day to pass on to my children & grandchildren. that's what I love about quilts. they're timeless & they hold such meaning & memories. I'm fairly new at quilting so I still need the patterns to follow! But I'm hoping one day I'll be as great as you! Thank you for the chance to win something awesome!!!!😊😊
Thank YOU for watching! I can't tell you how much I appreciate it!
Thank you for replying 😊 I kinda fangirled a little bit 😄
I love your show. Watch it for hours while I sew. You are a great teacher because you make it so much fun. By the way, you are also so incredibly talented. Thanks for being you!
I've never been to a retreat. I'm going to my first quilting class in the next couple weeks. I'm so excited. I have a 4,2 and 1 year old at home, so one can imagine how excited I am. I have no clue what I would put in my bag besides the essentials, thread, bobbins, scissors, rotary cutter, and of course a great bottle of wine! Watching your videos has been so excited to find some of my own time to quilt once winter gets here. Thank you!
I would have to pack my quilting gloves, favourite pin cushion, spare needles, threads, my current PIGS (project in grocery sack haha!) walking foot and embroidery foot, seam ripper (of course!) and most importantly... COOKIES!!
Definitely give the bag to Dolly Hall for her daughter whose house flooded in Harvey. Glad they saved the sewing machines.
I have yet found a video of someone sewing a full size quilt on a regular machine until this one. Subscribed to learn more. Loved this one.
Angela, you are so upbeat and informative. My best retreat items are hand needles and sewing machine needles, travel cutting mat with rotary cutters(small, med., large), applique scissors, chocolate, threads, fabric, seam rippers, tweezers. Good luck everyone, it a lovely quilting gift!
I can not I am saying this, but I don't need another bag, I am all set. Hope someone who is new to quilting gets this great bag
If I won that tool bag, I would give it to my daughter whose house flooded in Hurricane Harvey. Right now both her Sewing machines are residing in my house to avoid dampness.
I go to the Houston Festival is like my retreat. I got to see you everyday. That was crazy fun. Becoming a better quilter because of all your work. Thank you Angela!!
You are just amazing.. if I wouldn't had found you... I never would had really tried to make a quilt.. always wanted too. Just never knew there were fun pattern quilts.. very pretty, colorful.... thank you so much.. now to go buy fabrics....
I love this show! Since I teach classes, the yazzii bag is just what I need! NOt only would I pack all the general supplies, but I also need to pack carmel M&M's--- a true treat! Thanks for doing the Midnight Quilter Show, it's the best!
I'm an obsessed quilting newbie with an alarmingly rapid-growing stash (think tiny stick person watching a mountain of cakes, charms, and jelly rolls avalanche and bury). I'm not sure what I'd pack, but I love all those clear pockets! I wonder if Angela would fit in my retreat bag. How awesome would it be to have a retreat with Angela !
Yes let's start a petition for Angela to host a quilting retreat! I can't think of anything that would be more fun!
JENNIE STORCH that would be an amazing retreat!!
Yes, wouldn't it?
I'm relatively new to quilting but I would pack my rotary cutter, cutting mat, rulers, and all of my notions. It would depend on how much room my kahlua and milk takes up. Lol
Dusty Ward / n
Your videos are the BEST! Love each and every one of the. As a professional videographer, I enjoy watching your camera angles, backgrounds, and special effects. I know how much work goes into producing a show to make it look easy and fun. Great job!! Quilting retreats are great fun. My favorite item I must have is my portable, padded chair seat!
Looks like your solo quilting retreat was a success! I am going to my first quilt retreat NEXT weekend!! Yay!! My favorite thing to take along when I go for a sew day is a folding T.V. table that I can use as a pressing or cutting table right next to my chair. It saves a lot of back & forth to the tables and ironing board set up for the group and I can lend it out to my table mates!
I would add some chocolate and cheese to go with the wine!
I would pack a small light because I never seem to have enough light when I'm quilting!
Great idea!!!
Yes, that is a great idea that I never would have thought of. Thanks for sharing, Kathy Davis!
and a small fan!
Another great idea! I have a fan on my 24/7!
I have seen every one of your youtube show, Thank you for making life fun when one is quilting. You are an awesome sole. May God bless you and your Family.
Angela , that is the most beautiful star i have ever seen . Girl , ypu are so talented and i love watching you quilt , and i thank you for teaching me so much . The Midnight Quilt Show is one of my favorites. Keep up your great humor i love that too. Happy quilting , bye-bye .
I would pack everything Angela did, adding chocolate.
Debbie M love the idea
This show is so much fun! I would pack a hexie to-go bag: wip, scissors, pin cushion, charm squares, needles, and paper templates. Did I forget anything? Oh yeah, chocolate.
I would bring my rotary cutter, extra blades, M&Ms, glue, 6 inch and 24 inch ruler, needles, thread, mat, iron, fabric and pattern pieces. Og and my scissors and sewing machine.
Belinda Cook Oooo..... m&ms good idea! Keep in mind that table space is really limited, might want to bring a smaller ruler and mat, and have most of your cutting done prior.
I would take what ever I need for the project at the time. I would also have to include potato chips and chocolate for munchies.
I'd have to go with supplies, various kinds of m&ms as well. Oh and my iPad so I can of course watch the midnight quilt show. ( I know..I have no shame lol)
I would bring snacks in my bag, I know it's a big no no, for some quilters, but I enjoy quilting and snacking! I would also bring a trusty seam ripper, only one thing is certain, I will make a mistake, lol
Love your show. I have been wanting to do my own quilting and you Cindy Needham have taken the fear of trying out of it. Thank you so much. I have gone on a retreat and they are wonderful.
I've never been to a quilting retreat either, but love the organizer you're giving away! It'd sure keep everything neat and easy to find! Love your videos.
I pack as though I am going away for a month. I could do with hiring a removal lorry to take all my stuff. Actually that could be a lucrative venture for a company. I would pack my worldy goods for a retreat eg, sewing machine, threads, tools, fabric, fabric, oh and fabric. Removal van collects my equipment and delivers it to the retreat (and back). I can have a separate refreshed and stress free trips and all my equipment and fabric is already there waiting for me. Without having to carry it. With space now in my car I can pack wine, chocolates and chocolate biscuits.
TreebeardsHome hey, you are speaking my language 😁🍷
I'll just smile and give you a veg mite sandwich...
Lol 10 points and a pile of fabric for the name of sing and band 😉
Crochet Connections unsure on a veg mite sandwich but if you offered me a slice of chocolate cake I would be in heaven 😀
Crochet Connections Down Under - Men at Work!!! First concert I ever went to ha!
Have never been on a quilt retreat- if quilting juice is involved and chocolate is involved, I'm in! Would pack beverages and necessary supplies for said beverages.... then my iPad and charging stuff for tutorial help, then fabric, lots of fabric, cutter, mat and thread!!!
I love your shows! I have been on 2 retreats and took everything imaginable the first time because I had no idea what to expect. Now I take my machine in our travel trailer. My current bag is falling apart so I would take everything in the old basket and put it in the new one. You can never take too much. I love my little iron and my small ironing pad.
Love the quilt and love love the bag!! What a great organizer for those of us who are still doing the " just drop it in a bag!" In fact I really am more like "anyone have a marking tool??" I see myself getting organized! Thanks for another great video! Always learn so much watching you! ANd laugh while learning, which is the best!!
I love your show. The quilts you make are gorgeous. That bag is just right for a retreat. I would pack all the essential tools, but I would add fabric squares to swap and extra tools to share. So many times, I've needed a tool that I forgot and had to borrow. Next time, I'll be the organized one and share my extra tools. How could I not be organized with that cool bag. Pockets galore. Just love it!
Angela you give me the courage to quilt my own work. Finished is better than not. I would page my must have supplies, like marking tools, thread, thread nippers, rotary cutter and small scissors, etc etc etc. You know everything I need to quilt, just smaller sizes. As far as games, well it's usually trying not to spill the special quilting juice on my quilt. Or my favorite piecing with out pins. If you have to piece with pins then playing piecing with bleeding is a favorite. I love your attitude and your sarcasm. Please keep the show going.
Never been to a quilting retreat. I love how organized I could be with that bag and would definitely not forget my snips.
Hi Angela, I to have never been to a retreat. No time! As so many of us youngish quilters can attest to. But being able to watch you gives me so much pleasure so thank you!!!
I just purchased this quilt. So thanks Craftsy and Angela for the help and tips! I have never been to a retreat they sound wonderful maybe one day. What wouldn't I pack into that awesome tote. Of course the basics, pins, seam ripper (of course), rotary cutter so many more things to tuck away. But most of all I would have to have my phone or I pad so I could watch my favorite and hilarious host work her magic! Thank -you so much Craftsy and Angela for all the inspiration you give us..
Thank you for fun and easy lessons. I am very new to quilting, but due to your infectious enthusiasm for the designs, I am about to attempt freemotion quilting patterns...your quilts and colors are simply gorgeous, thank you.
The one item I always take to retreat is my small scissors on a "Zinger" (a retractable cord). Love your quilting. Angela!
The Midnight Quilt Show now has our OWN channel! Subscribe for new episodes :D ruclips.net/user/midnightquiltshow
I am just leaning to use free motion quilting in my quilts and I love your shows! Not just for how easily you make it look, but your encouragement of close enough is good enough, and don't stress about it! I just finished my first baby quilt ( the free motion quilting ) the quilting wasn't great but good enough, and thanks to you I gave it to them anyhow. And they all loved it! If I won the great bag I would pack all the regular stuff, and a large bottle of pain killer because the bed always kill my back, but that isn't keeping me home!
My favorite quilting retreat item is my scrap pop up bag! It literally folds into itself and then pops open when I need to use it. It helps lessen the mess around me with all of my scraps! It is definitely a must! AND I made it, so it's adorable lol. Thanks for the videos!! :)
You make Y seams look so easy and I love the way you flatten out the middle! lol. I try to pack a snack to share M&M's any kind are always a winner! Thanks Angela!
My quilting materials are all over the house! How cool to have everything in one place. Love the show.
Love the organizer! I would totally use this to store my appliqué iron with different attachments and scissors; my regular fabric scissors, rotary cutters, and rotary blades; current quilt pattern, fabric samples, any templates, and of course, my quilting inspiration(s); chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate; and last but not least extra needles for my sewing machine, different feet for my machine, bobbins, thread, and any other misc. items.
I also love the quilt, it's gorgeous! Can't wait to see it quilted! Haha... your method of flattening the center point would totally be me if I made that quilt. Love your sense of humor!
Hi Angela: You absolutely must attend a quilt retreat (other than just a solo retreat). They are so much fun! I have attended a number of them and my favorite part is staying up really really late to try and get more piecing completed. I always seem to be the late owl in the group at every retreat. That is really when I get my best sewing done! Anyway, I can't say enough about Yazzii bags. I start out pretty organized with all my sewing supplies whether at a retreat, class, or home, and can quickly lose items. So all the Yazzii products I currently own help to keep me organized (especially when traveling) and make the piecing process go much smoother. I can actually find things while sewing! I love the "snacks" and "drinks" in the back section of your bag. That is such a wonderful idea because you can not attend a retreat without those "supplies" also! Popcorn could also easily be packed in the Yazzii bag since most places where retreats are held have access to a microwave. And of course, chocolate of any kind for me (I prefer chocolate and nuts so we could certainly share some M&M's Peanut snacks.) We could also mix things up a bit by bringing the "caramel" popcorn. It is so delicious. And, actually since this Yazzii bag is so large, I would fill this wonderful Yazzii bag with pretty much a larger variety of needed sewing supplies. There is always something that you need and it most likely is at home on your sewing table! And getting another Yazzii bag would be just in time for the 2nd Annual quilt retreat that I will be attending in Sonoma in February 2018! Keep doing what you doing Angela. I absolutely love your videos!
Angela , you're awesome! I just completed my first quilting project thanks to gaining confidence watching your videos. It was a table runner but you gotta start somewhere! I've never been on a retreat . I'd probably pack along the lines as what you did.
I'm amazed at how many m & ms would be packed because they are my fav. I would also bring all my quilt supplies with plenty of water and plastic bags. Always need those for quilt blocks and leftover food!
I would pack my bag with supplies to make a quilt that requires templates. NO ONE has ever really taught me how to make and use templates! Thank you, Angela, for demystifying the whole process. I was really about to drop out of quilting when I found your videos. You have put FUN back into quilting. Top picks for my bag would be my Karen Buckley serrated scissors and my favorite tool - my magical extendable magnet rod (from Auto Zone). After a few glasses of wine, the pins jump off the sewing table.
I have only recently found your "Midnight Quilt Show" and absolutely enjoy it!!! You always make it look fun
I would definitely add sweet snacks to my bag along with all the necessary quilting tools. I love watching your show. You have such a great sense of humor.
I love this show and I'll be attending a retreat next month with a group of wonderful friends. I would be packing tons of supplies in my bag. Generally I use shopping bags, so having a great bag to organize all the supplies would be wonderful. Can't go without the general supplies, but probably the most used supply is the quick quarter tools and tri-rec rulers. I never go anywhere without them.
I love your energy! Your episodes are so fun and uplifting to watch! I would bring some of the vintage fabric I've inherited from my grandmother, one of her patterns, and one of my favorite BlocLoc rulers to help me mimic the incredible skill my grandmother had! Xoxo! Thanks for the fun and informative vids!
I have never been to a quilting retreat. I bet they are great fun. After seeing your inspirational Midnight Quilt Show episode I would definitely pack my handy dandy rubber mallet in my Yazzii bag!
Angela, I just love this show and all of your videos. You really have a talent and skill for conveying good information. I am a beginner longarmer and the design information is so helpful!
Angela I love your show! I can think of a lot of possibilities for what I would pack in the bag. The one idea I have to make the bag "retreat ready" would be to put a removable label in each section (or in most of them) listing the items that go in that section. That way when I am packing for a retreat I can see at a glance what I need to put in the bag so I am ready to go.
I have never attended a retreat....it would be such fun! I would definitely pack up some fun fabric and lots of tools and of course....lots of chocolate!!! Thanks for these awesome tutorials Angela! You rock!
Angela, love your show! Thx to you I have finally tried fmq! Not as fast as you but I did one whole quilt...60" sq. Not a biggy but enuf for a first timer I haven't been on a retreat either, but love the organization bag! I would pack, rotary cutter and extra blades, machine needles, thread, bobbins, quilting pins, magnetic pin holder, marking pins, seam ripper, because I always need it, scissors, mini iron, chocolate is my drug of choice!
Love this quilt and her teaching style. Never been to a quilty retreat so no idea what to bring.
Retreats are great. I attended my first one a couple of months ago. Apart from all but the kitchen sink, pack some ear plugs as someone always snores in shared accommodation. Pack your sense of humour too and have a ball. Retreats rock.
Never been to a retreat yet. Planning Missouri Star outing with friends. All the usual supplies, my iPad, snacks, a few charm packs, and lots of imagination. Love your videos Angela!
I’ve never been to a retreat but I’m sure they must be fun. If I had that bag I’d probably put all my quilting supplies I’ve managed to collect so far in it. Which is not a lot because I just started quilting. Thanks for doing these shows they are really helpful and entertaining.
I have never been to a quilt retreat as I am new to quilting. I would have to say my must have tool is my rotary cutter and acrylic rulers. Love your show Angela! You make me feel comfortable as a newbie.
The wine & "glasses" are BRILLIANT!!! And, since Hubbs took up wine making when he retired (just before I retired to full-time quilting!!!), I am set! Bring on that Yazzii Bag!!!!!!
I definitely want to try this-your tutorials make it seem so simple that even a novice like me would have a chance to make something good looking. I would pack plenty of coffee and diet soda in the bag along with all of the quilting supplies, and even though I doubt I would have time for any games, , corn hole is a good one to take for all ages
I would pack all the essentials like Angela did substituting white wine for the red, adding Kahlua for my coffee, chocolate, and oatmeal cookies. What a snazzy bag and I would love to have one to use. Thanks Angela for your shows. They are great fun!
I've never been on a retreat either. I love this organized bag! I would pack my rotary cutter, mat, pins, threads, and whatever else I need...plus chocolate.
Thank you for taking the time to make and share with us all of your videos. I love just sitting watching them and have learned so much. Then I like to sit and draw the designs and next try to stitch them out. I have a long way to go, but loving the process. Thank you again.
Thanks again Angela, I am constantly inspired by your videos and challenged to learn new techniques but 'Y' seams are scary. Our retreats always incorporate a road trip to the local quilting juice supply shop, the quilting tea rooms, the quilting bakery and of course the local quilting fabric & notions store, so in some ways it's not about what you pack to take but what you pack to bring home, so always take a spare bag. We always take gifts (FQs) for the others, and a NEW project and then some UFO's for midnight to dawn shift but the most important thing is to take baby wipes or similar, for when the chocolate or cake or whatever leaves you with sticky fingers. :)
I love this show, and watch all of them on RUclips.Angela’s instructions are great.
Doris Kennedy
I also have not been to a retreat but I know that it would be enjoyable because of the connections with the other quilters. I do feel like when you do the midnight quilt I am enjoying the type of connections I would if I was at a retreat. You always show new quilting techniques which is like learning from fellow quilter at a retreat.
I did not know til I watched this video that what I need in my retreat bag is a HAMMER! That and a bag o'wine of course. Thanks for such a fun video - I cannot believe I never knew about the Midnight Quilt Show!
I've never been to a retreat but I've always wanted to they look like so much fun. Just the interaction with the other people sharing the same interest would be the best part for me
Love that organizer! I could really use that at crafting weekend on Saturday. I'd load mine up with my rotary cutter and blades, pins, thread, a washable glue stick, binding clips... maybe even my mini cutting mat and a travel iron!
I haven't been to a quilting retreat yet, but I am looking forward to attending one when my life quiets down. I would pack my quilting essential supplies and snacks, coffee , and my phone to take pictures of the quilting fun. This bag looks so organized with the see through windows. Thanks for your wonderful videos and great giveaways.
My go to bits are my rotary cutter and mat, stitch ripper, snips, travel iron, heatproof mat, pins and a magnet (especially as they go flying so often!). I also tend to have wine and crisps (chips).
Thanks for another brilliant video.
I just discovered your show! I love it SO much! Oh my gosh, if I won the tool bag I would fill it with my small rulers, rotary cutters, thread, basic sewing supplies, a few fat quarters, ear buds, phone chargers so I can watch you on RUclips for hours!
I almost fainted when you opened that bag!! The best I've seen! I know what I'll be dreaming of tonight! In addition to all the little sewing tools we use like rotary cutters, replacement blades, threads, markers, pins, etc., a bottle of wine, cork screw, and snacks plus a pad of paper and pencil would be in mine. The pad? To jot down any inspired quilting pattern I think of while sipping .. I mean piecing! If you listen, material speaks to us!
First of all, Angela is inspirational! As a new quilter, I was intimidated by all the various quilting patterns and techniques. But, thanks to Angela I bought my first to 2 quilt kits from Craftsy and I was not disappointed. I now have one quilt completed and working on the other. I thoroughly enjoy her style of quilting, makes me feel I can at least quilt straight or wavy lines on my quilts. As for the Yazzii Companion, it will carry all the tools which currently reside in ziplock bags in a shoe box and hopefully room for her book, Free Motion Meandering!
These bags are just super. I would be sure to include my long tweezers. I use them to hold edges that seem too delicate to pin, like triangle corners, to help with sewing curves, pulling pins as I sew, and to help me thread my machine. Love your tutorials.
I love this bag! I go to quilt night once a week and this bag would be perfect for toting all my supplies! We don’t so much play games as tell stories and laugh together.
You are just so fun!!! I feel like I've been to a retreat when I watch you! I would bring my friction pen along with new blade in my rotary cutter!
Hi Angela , I love your you tubes !! OMG I would keep my embroidery project for my redwork in the Yazzi bag!!
I will have to look into the wine that fits in that bag !! You are so clever with all the goodies you keep hidden in that bag!.
Love the quilt that you are working on.
I recently got the sewing bug again, and I'm fairly new to quilting. I've never been to a quilting retreat, but would love to eventually go to one! Love your tutorial! Will definitely be using the wavy lines!
I'd have to pack my cutting mat and rotary cutter, scissors, pins, marking pens/chalks, my all-important (a.k.a. best friend) seam ripper, rulers, sewing machine and presser feet, threads, patterns, paper, and the fabrics and batting for my quilt! Of course, I'll have to make sure there's room for some chocolate in there, too!
Hah! I would definitely pack some of those silicone wine glasses that you have. Those are great! You also asked what kind of games we play on retreat. The only one that I remembered involved dice and stealing fabric squares. Fun!
I love seeing your videos and knowing I'm not the only Mom with younger kids that sneaks midnight quilting time in! I am always asked how do I find the time, my usual answer is that I make the time when they are sleeping because I can make the fabric listen, the kids not so reliable on listening :D.
Ohhh what to pack. . . .I have some tools I cannot live without, my rotary cutter and glove, (have gotten too many stitches trying to cut while the boys are still awake to have more sew time later. .. . I have a cutting glove now LOL) the usual sewing supplies along with power bar just in case things are going so well I don't want to stop :)
Keep burning the night oil, you aren't alone!
This was a very "fun" video! My husband isn't well, so now that I can't leave him to go to quilt retreats, I found the midnight Quilt shows a real delight, and makes me feel like I can still participate. I would take everything everyone else mentioned, plus a seat cushion! Those chairs at the retreats get mighty hard after a number of hours!
Hi Angela!! Love your videos. I don't drink wine but love chocolate, so that definitely goes in the bag. Then of course, it's rotary cutters, scissors, iron, blades and thread. I have been known to forget the thread!! The best game we ever played at a quilt retreat had to be what's your biggest fib!!
I love the retreat bag. I have been a fiber artist for many years and have never attended a quilting retreat due to unfortunate circumstances. I plan to attend at least one before I am too ancient to go! For now I really enjoy The Midnight Quilt Show and look forward to each episode. My husband is an IT network engineer, and he is not happy with me if I don't wait to watch each one with him! I love it! I have even purchased the HQ 710 and the Sweet Sixteen because I was able to see Angela use them many times on RUclips. I have added them to my workroom with my other machines. I have been down with a spinal nerve injury for three months and I am dying to get back to quilting. I have built up quite a stash because I have been ordering from Craftsy! Ok so I would stock some M & M's most definitely, and also the tool you use for cutting the threads between your speed pieced pieces. I would also add some Davids tea because I love it while I am creating beautiful things and it would be a great thing to share with my new retreat friends! I love bags and long before they were popular, everyone called me the bag lady! I would love to get back into teaching as my MBA winds down and I get back on my feet, so this bag would be great to have ready with all of my tools and goodies! I love the wine pouch which I could give to my adult student since I don't drink! Haha! Thank you so much for everything! All my best, Robyn Libby Haertel
How fun! Picking up my granddaughter from school has become an hour and a half wait in line, part of my day! Hoping the school will get a handle on this but until then, my Yazzii Crafter's Companion would have supplies that allow me to play while I wait, the pattern, the tablet for muse music, fabric, scissors. thread, needles. Oh I am having such fun just dreaming it up. Plus the basic pens and pencils for my calendar/sketchbook that I practice machine quilting designs in. Got to quit writing and get to playing.
Can't wait for each new episode. In my bag, I would keep all my essentials (scissors, rotary cutter, clips, etc.) which somehow get misplaced after each sewing session.
This is sofun! I'm going to join you for sure working on the next quilt. I'm bringing my small iron to the retreat. Love it!
One retreat we played Strip Rummoli with 2" strips of fabric. I cut a lot of strips for the game and came home with way more then I cut. I still have a bin of strips. Love the great retreat sewing bag. It would be great for my next retreat next month.
