I used to attend the wondercut retreats when I could afford it. Their price included 5 meals, snacks, bottled water, soda, and usually 3 kits. They have fabric to sell, so that if you want a larger quilt you can purchase more fabric. Their schedule is from 1:00 pm Friday until around 8:00 p.m./ all day Saturday/, and until noon on Sunday--two times a year. I really enjoyed it, but being in the poor farm now I cannot attend. Sometimes I will call and they let me come and help others that are new to the rulers, and I also like to press for them. I also make a quilt for each retreat that is given to foster kids in the area. I am working on a UFO right now and when I have the top finished I will post it. It is one of the wondercut patterns from a reatreat.
