Anyone up for a RETREAT?
 
at this place?

I wish I had 5 friends who would want to do a week here!

Aw, I wish that were much closer to me, I would love to go.

If I had the money, it would be a lovely place and I would join you, but until my ship comes in ......

My daughter in law to be (fingers crossed) is from Good Harbor, WA in Puget Sound! They live in Salt Lake City and cant figure out where to marry....In WA, SLC or here in Northern MI....I told them all 3 places, and she said with a huge grin..."Does that mean 3 of your quilts?"...I think she is marrying him for my quilts...lol!

And yes,,,,it looks ABSOLUTELY lovely...a beautiful escape...but they would eventually kick us out...and I would have another unfinished project...I would have spent the time lolly gagging in the hottub, watching the scenery...LOL

When my ship comes in...I will probably be at the airport....lol

Oh, I am going to be so ready for a place like this after my daughter's wedding. Unfortunately, you couldn't get any further away from me in the continental US if you tried. Clear across the country, diagonally!

Oh, Bainbridge Island is gorgeous. When we lived in Seattle, we'd occassionally go there on a ferry and just loved that area. Lots of qullt shops in the PNW. If anyone can join you, it would be such a stellar experience.

Hey Jackie! I'll be there soon. Have plane res. for next week, but may have to delay a week or two!
I grew up not more that 12 miles from there and it will always be home in my heart! I have lots of quilty friends from WA who might like to join in! :) Have you checked on prices or been there? I also know of another great place in WA that you might like to consider!

What a beautiful spot! The pics alone might prompt my DH to take up quilting. Or he could sail while I join others in quilting. Thanks for posting.

So beautiful. Too bad I'm not closer. http://smilyes4u.com/img/2/f1.png

That is a beautiful place. There is one pretty close to me, not too far from the East coast, that offers quilting retreats. http://www.purityspring.com/quilting-packages.html but then again, I'm saving pennies for DD's wedding this summer.

I wish I could go. I can't wait to get back to the states.

starshine 06-09-2012 03:31 AM

Looks wonderful, and a quilt retreat sounds wonderful. I'd have to keep an eye out for that same ship MaryMo mentioned, but I'll put it on my list when I purchase that lottery ticket. ;-)
