Making lists works well for me in planning and packing, too. Enjoy!
Thanks, Yvonne. A few things to add but maybe a good one to refer to for the next sewing trip.
Having a list always works great for me! Oh how I miss going on retreats! Have fun!
I am trying to get a real system going with my lists. Will spend a little time on this when tired of sewing (that never happens!).
