    Finally, after all the waiting, I went on my retreat to Rockaway Beach(Tillamook). We left on Wednesday about 9:30am, had a gorgeous drive up the coast, it is such a pleasant drive with some of the most gorgeous coastline. I went with two of my friends, Priscilla and Linda. Beautiful feathered star made by instructor, the quilting on this just blew me away.

    Yes, they have this retreat every year, for the last 19 years, it is located in Oregon, next year is their 20th retreat. They have retreaters that have been there for the whole 19 years. It's put on by Jane's fabric Patch of Tillamook, Oregon, and Jane is there every day, all day, she's a very friendly, helpful person. I really enjoyed it, and am planning on going again next year. They have a little shop at the retreat, and a massager that comes every day, breakfast lunch and dinner are provided, and snacks. The instructors are very friendly, and really know their stuff. The variety of classes are great, with a class for any skill level. The other campers are very friendly, and helpful.
