SUMMER RETREATS
Always the 4th Weekend in August
Quilts With A Heart Retreat Center
Priddy, Texas
2019 Retreat Quilt - Something from the folks at
Sew Kind of Wonderful!
Summer Retreat 2019 is set for August 23-25, 2019!
I have the date set but haven't completely decided on which Sew Kind of Wonderful pattern we are going to make!! Hop on over to my blog page and enter your vote on which one of these beauties you would prefer to work on during retreat. I'm leaning toward Vintage Picnic, however, since my original Metro Wings took a walk, I'm not ruling out the Metro rings either, decisions, decisions......
Details about Summer Retreat 2019:
Since I haven't finalized the pattern as yet, check back to see what the final decision is! Since the patterns I have it narrowed down to use pre-cuts, my thoughts are that you can select the jelly roll or layer cake that you wish to use upon arrival to make the quilt blend with your style. Background yardage will be provided as well as binding and the pattern. You will need the Quick Curve Ruler and they will be available for purchase if you don't have one, and be sure to bring yours if you do!
This year's retreat will again be held at the Quilt With A Heart retreat center in Priddy, Texas, which, is located in between somewhere and nowhere in the center of Texas! We are centrally located in this great big state and are approximately 2 hours from anywhere significant in any direction you go, i.e., 2 hours to Austin, Ft.Worth, Waco, San Angelo, Abilene, Fredericksburg, you get the picture!
Check in time is noon on the 23rd and check out time is Sunday at 12:00. As always, once everyone is signed up, I will divide the attendees into groups and each group will be responsible for one meal. I will provide Friday evening's meal which will be my hubby's yummy barbeque brisket, beans, coleslaw and desert. Coffee, tea and water will be provided, you will need to bring any snacks, breakfast foods and other drinks that you may desire. We will have some on-going games throughout the weekend with prizes and we will play a fat quarter game on Saturday evening along with Show and Tell time, so don't forget to bring something to show!!
What you will need to bring with you: Sewing machine and other supplies you think you will need to sew all weekend, and a square up ruler. I have square up rulers by Sew Kind of Wonderful designed specifically for squaring up their patterns and if you would like to purchase on of those to aid in your progress, they will be here! Also, bring FIVE UGLY FAT QUARTERS FOR THE GAME. That's right, dig into those scraps and find the ugly fat quarters that you want to get rid of and bring them for trade!! Things that are not required but would be handy to have: Spinning mat for squaring up, chain cutter for separating your chain piecing.
The cost of the retreat is $275.00. A non-refundable deposit of $50.00 is required to reserve your spot. You can reserve your place now with a deposit or pay in full, both options are available below. I look forward to seeing you at the first Summer Retreat at the new Quilts With A Heart Retreat Center!!!
I've had a lot of interest in making this quilt. If this retreat date fills and there is still more that want to do this quilt, I will host another retreat the week before or the week after to accommodate everyone!
