You will have the most amazing time a quilter can have!! Which retreat are you signed up for? Been to the Christmas in July retreat twice and passed through on vacation. They treat you like queens...amazing food, many free items, teach skills, use of the sizzix with every template MSQC has made for their quilts, will get you any item you want to buy ( they call the warehouse if the store is not stocked). Customer service is wonderful!
Eleven of my quilting buddies are going in May and staying at the Home Inn B and B (15 min down the road) and they also are amazing for quilters. We wanted to experience a more private experience.
Have fun and let us know all about it.
