Oct 7-9th!

Anyone from here planning to attend?
I know I am...plenty of room in my van if anyone needs a ride.
$90 for the weekend if you are staying there and $70 if you are not. THis includes ALL meals!

This is one of my fave groups of all times! Sure hope to meet another QB buddy out there!

OMG!! I would drive out to OK. to go to a retreat for $90! The retreats LQS offers are $275. Not a happening deal for me!
Have a GREAT time!

Hey...is this the one at Jett, or another one? The one at Jett I had heard was a bit more expensive, but not much.

I would like some information about the retreat. Sounds like fun. I will pass it around my quilt group. Thanks, BF

NO, this retreat has NO affiliation with the folks in Jet.
The retreat in Jet is pretty much an exclusive group of about 12 people. Outsiders RARELY hear about that retreat!

The one Cherokee is HUGE...it is at their Fairgrounds building, you can camp outside, or inside, or stay at the local hotel. All meals are prepared right there on site.
and they are GREAT meals. The shop over in Ringwood is the on site vendor. The building can easily fit 50 quilters with no more than 2 to an 8' table! SO much room to lay things out, hang things up, etc....and the ladies are just THE best!

I do have contact #'s if anyone wants them, you can PM me!

Would consider it, but am going to my 45th class reunion that weekend. I have never been to a retreat. Would like to experienece it. Do you take your own projects to work on?

Is this an annual event? We are going to Washington for our retreat this year, but this one sounds great for next year!! Please let me know.
