Happy WV Quilters at our 2009 Retreat

Back by popular demand – the West Virginia Quilters Retreat, November 5 to 7 at Cedar Lakes Conference Center in Ripley!

Imagine a three-day weekend of nothing but eating, sleeping, and quilting! This will be a relaxed low-key chance to work on individual projects, see what other quilters are doing, catch up with old friends, and get to know quilters from around the state. Last year there were several spontaneous demonstrations of techniques, and several folks went home with completed UFOs. Comments from last year’s retreat:

"Liked time to work on own projects. Nice relaxing and working with everyone and enjoyed everyone’s different projects. Nice seeing friends from all over the state."

"Beautiful facility for sewing, nice lighting, relaxing weekend. Plenty of room to work."

"Great time, great place, great people. Next year maybe have an option for album blocks to exchange..."

"I had a wonderful weekend, enjoying the companionship of other quilters and working on several projects without interruption – well, some talking to others. I hope there’s another next year."

"Great time, food, fellow quilters!  This is a great place — just let us know when!"

Because of limited space this retreat is only open to members of West Virginia Quilters, Inc. We have a block of 20 rooms reserved. Check-in for hotel rooms is 3 PM, but work space will be open earlier. For more information, contact Terry Chilko at 304-296-4846 or Charli Fulton at 304-744-1654.
