Bucket list check
 

Its official! My mother and I have booked a retreat at the Missouri Star Quilt Company! another check for my quilting bucket list! no one else would really understand like you guys.

It's official! We are all jealous!!!

have a wonderful time and make sure you tell us all about it!

Oooh! Lucky you and your Mother!! I'm happy for you both:)

I'm sure you will have a great time and make wonderful memories! Please tell us all about it when you get home!

So happy for you and your Mom. Have a wonderful time and enjoy lots of fun time and laughter.

Have fun and let us know how it went.

oh, that is fantastic! Will you fly or drive?

I'd want to drive so that I could do lots of shop hopping between here and there - and even with the many shops that have closed, I'm confident that there are a lot I could find!

I'm thrilled for you. I would like that experience - someday!!

Sounds wonderful!!! Have a good time, do a lot of shopping and tell us all about!

What a great thing for you and your mom to do together. I think a retreat at MSQC would be very fun and memorable. I love the Doan story and I admire all they have done for quilting and quilters. It is a true American success story. Tell us about it later. I do hope to go there this summer amidst other travels.

You will have so much fun! Be prepared to "pet" lots of fabric--more than you've seen in one place, I'm guessing!

I was there in October - you will have a ball! So many shops, patterns, ideas. You will be inspired!

Oh wow, that sounds great!!!

Take lots of pictures for us. You are seeeew lucky. Hope to get to Hamilton this summer.

Have a GREAT time and report back to us - maybe some pictures too?

Of course we are all jealous. And you understand that by the law of this QB you will be required to make a full accounting of all the merriment, complete with pictures of your purchases. (I'm trying to be funny.)

Lucky You! Enjoy your trip and retreat.

We are driving. It's just over an 11 hr drive

Do you notice my GREEN face? Have a wonderful time and share lots of pics when you return.

Good for you! Have a great time and take lots of pictures!

I am green with envy. I know you will have a wonderful time. Be thankful that your Mom is able to go with you.

Congratulations. Have fun for all of us. We stopped on our way back from Yellowstone in July and it is an awesome experience. Be sure and eat at the Blue Sage and stop for a beverage at the brewery too. The bakery is delicious as well. Can you tell my DH was along. He hates shopping and actually enjoyed sitting on a bench and in the Man Cave watching people. The fabrics can be overwhelming but they are extremely well organized and so helpful. So happy for you!

That sounds like a trip of a lifetime. Cherish your precious time with your mother. Mothers are on loan from heaven and can't stay forever.

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.

THEY HAVE A MAN CAVE???? Maybe I can get the hubs to go??
Naw still doubt that would tempt him:(
Have on my bucket list but there are holes in my bucket... So can only dream!!

WooHoo! You will have a ball!

Oh my! You are twice blessed. You have your mom to go with you and are going to quilter's heaven. Life is good.

Oldest Daughter and I thought about going. We decided we would be too tempted to buy more fabrics. We have way too much to use up now, sure don'y need more.

Have a great time.

Your trip is going to be soooo much fun! Be sure to post lots of pics when you go and let us know all about it!!
Have a great time!!

Great minds think alike. My friends and I just signed up for another quilt retreat the last weekend in February. We always have a wonderful time laughing, sharing, eating, even sewing! We have done mystery quilts, stack-n-whack, restoring old quilts, making charity quilts, and others. Enjoy and please share photos. :)

Enjoy your retreat and share your fun.

That is on my list too. Can't wait to hear all about your trip and experience!

Woohoo. I am excited for you both and hope you will come back to share your experience. It's on my bucket list too.

Whooot Whoot!! Way to go! Hope you have a fantastic time!

Have fun. I am sooooo jealous. I was just on their website a couple of days ago thinking I would love to book a retreat there. And go shop there.

Then fix it dear Lisa, dear Lisa, dear Lisa. Then fix it dear Lisa, dear Lisa. Fix it.
With what shall I fix it? . . . .
I guess you'll have to save big time. Good luck!

Have a great time! I plan on going there this summer to spend a weekend shopping and being overwhelmed!

Have a great time. I love going on retreat, just waiting to hear about our latest.

wow it sounds like a fun time!!!
