A Perfect Day with a Friend

Saturday was a perfect fall day in Northern Wisconsin.  To make it even better my friend, Marla,  invited me to ride to a "Barn Event" sponsored by  Buttermilk Basin.

 

It was awesome!  It was held in at The Brickhouse Getaway where they transformed an old dairy barn  in Northern Wisconsin  for special events. 

There were patterns, projects, cotton and wool fabrics throughout the barn.  Lots of great ideas!

Each of the barns on this quilt are appliqued in wool. It is beautiful!

And yes!  I did come home with three patterns and two small bundles of wool!! We are already planning for to attend next year. 

Maybe even take one of the classes Stacy offers.

Of course, after an exhausting time browsing and the work of selecting what we absolutely couldn't live without we had to stop for lunch.  We drove a few miles to Paradise Landing where we sat in the sunshine enjoying the view!

It was a great way to relax with a great friend.  I didn't realize how very much I needed this day to unwind!
