Small Quilt Retreat

Here's something for you to think about - What could be more fun than spending a weekend in October at a rustic retreat in Wisconsin, sewing with me and lots of other lovers of doll quilts??

Sound like a good time? If we get enough people to sign up, I'm hosting a Fall retreat in Elkhorn, Wisconsin.  Join me on October 7 - 9, 2011 to celebrate our collective joy of making small quilts.



Total Retreat cost: $180.00. E-mail me at kathyktracy@comcast.net to sign up or get more details. Package includes lodging for 2 nights, meals (Friday dinner through Sunday breakfast) plus a Saturday workshop to make one of my small quilts with an antique touch (a new quilt that isn't in one of my books). I'm also hoping we can have a little fabric or block swap on Friday night, Show & Tell and I'll do a trunk show of some of MY quilts as well. Space is limited so don't hesitate for too long. We're bound to have a good time and, oh yeah, get some sewing done too!



"Oh Maude, did you hear?? A Doll Quilt Retreat!"
"Yes, Agnes, with Kathy Tracy! We definitely should go - I hear it will be the most delightful event of the year! I'll bring cookies and fudge!"

Oh! that would be so much fun! I will think about it, but doubt I can come. We have been on a long trip now and when I get home, I don't think I'll want to leave for a long, long time! I love your teddy bears!! I have a blog post about a teddy bears' picnic here: http://countrylogcabin.blogspot.com/2010/10/heritage-days-buttons-and-teddy-bears.html

Sounds wonderful, but I'm a bit faraway here in New Zealand, but we have retreats here too and they are great.

Oh, I wish I could join you! I would love, love, love, to meet you and see your quilts. Alas, Wisconsin is so far away and my bank account is so empty....

...But I'll be working on my small/doll quilts here in Delaware. I've got half of the blocks appliqued for the Orange Peel Quilt in Remembering Adelia. It's one of my favorites! =)

Oh, I so wish I could be there, but Vancouver Island is just too far away. I know that everyone who signs up will have a wonderful time. Love those bears, and what a sweet quilt they are picnicking on.
