Just got back from a quilt retreat. Ours runs from Monday thru Sunday! But you can come on which ever day is convenient for you. I normally go Wed-Sun. We play quilt bingo. Each player is suppose to make their own card out of different fabrics at home with 5 rows of fabric just like a bingo card. Then cut an index cards into say 1-1/2" squares with the types of fabrics you used like say "red check" or "blue paisley" on say a 1-1/2" sq. When you get to the retreat, the names of your fabrics get put in a coffee can. Each person that makes a card does this same thing. Then we had quilt bingo for breaks. We'd play say 5 games, with gifts bought by each person attending, then go back to sewing. About every 3 hours play a game of bingo. Or you can even use a regular bingo game. This year we played the gossip game. One person starts a story like "Mary Lou took a purple piece of fabric in a basket over to Lilly's & brought back a lavender tulip" Just something to start the story, each person whispers to their neighbor & the end person tells what the final story winds up. Just goes to show how gossip changes thru the channels of conversation!
