Hi all,
Do any of you know of any Quilt retreats here in California ??

Yes, there were a couple listed, thought someone here would have a good recomendation.
Funny part is your mention made me wonder if there were some not highly published. :)

also why don't you plan a sew day with members of the quilting board members in your area

this is our 2nd Meet and Greet in Indiana coming up October 19, 2010

and also we are planning some sew days in the future

we are thinking of getting some ladies from the quilting board in the area and sew sew sew, go to a hotel and can sew from our rooms and maybe rent like a room to sew (also looking into some bed and breakfast for a sewing getaway)

It would be fun to have some type of retreat!!!

I think so too, looked into one in the mountains here, really high $$, and could see why, retreat price wasn't too bad but by the time the rooms were added on bumped it right up :shock:

Guess will keep looking, or for a space, to plan a get together, don't mind driving, but this states big !!
maybe something in the spring ??

I know there's one in Murphys in August I believe. I haven't been but it sounded good.

Yes, there is a great retreat in Northern California in Fortuna each May. See the link below. I have been going to this for at least 6 years, and I love it. I don't think you will be disappointed. Check it out.

There's a neat one at the Hunnewill guest ranch in Bridgeport CA on Halloween weekend that Cindy goes to each year. It's reasonably priced and a lot of fun.

They may still have openings for this year.

They will know who to contact to see if there are openings.
