Did you ever wonder why quilters retreat? Are you curious as to what happens at a quilting retreat? To some it may not be any news at all, while others might be surprised. Either way, I hope you will enjoy this video and be delighted with the wild deer, scenery, our silliness and the projects we finish! Then take note of our snack shelf where we take junk food to a new level!

Wow! You are a fast and tireless piercer! And I think it’s a wonderful quilt. Many modern quilts are borderless so. . .ok!

Thanks, I show the entire quilt in detail in the video after this one. It’s called to border or not to border. Thanks for watching ❣️

New viewer here and it is so nice to see that other quilters take as much stuff on retreat that my small group does! Goodness, you had a car full! And we also eat very well while gone. Beautiful setting and you all look like you had a great time! Retreats are good for the soul, aren’t they? TFS!

When I lived in Cascade years ago, we would drive up West Mountain and shovel a truck bed full of snow to chill all the beer for our Fourth of July picnic. Yes, there would still be snow in July on the mountain!

Great memory. Do you still live in Idaho?

Looks like you have all the Sweet and Savory snacks covered. YUM! Oh, by the way, I found an old 15-91 Singer machine, found out it was made in1940 in Elizabeth New Jersey.. Well my sister Elizabeth (Betsy) was born in New Jersey in 1940, so obviously my machine is called Betsy. I will have to check out exactly where Cascade Lake is.

@sisterchicksquilting 2 месяца назад

Yeah, e went quite a bit overboard on the snacks that time, 😂 I love The name Betsy. My featherweight is Lois after my grama. 😊👍🏼♥️🐥

Oh my gosh! It looks like everyone had a blast. Beautiful projects, and the deer just eating out of your hands. What a great time!

Did you see Patricia in the video? She wasn't interested in quilting and now she loves it! I'm a very bad influence! And thats why we retreat, we got so much done,

@JudithBrummett 2 года назад

I am not new to quilting but just dont get the idea of a retreat. Does everyone just bring a project and sew together or is there a theme or project involved? I would have thought there would be a pattern and fabric requirements for everyone to work on and get finished at the end of the retreat?

@sisterchicksquilting 2 года назад

Some retreats are very scheduled, for instance there might be a guest presenter and everyone buys their pattern and they all make the same thing or practice the same skill. Others, and this is the one I attend, are a set apart time to just get togheter and quilt together. This is an opportunity to retreat from our from our daily routines/work to just quilt, laugh, catch up and eat with out interruption. We've all been to the structured retreats and prefer this format where we can each work on our own projects, but together. This past spring we decided to work on the same block, each making 20, then we're going to exchange them in the fall and each sew a quilt that will be from everyone in our group. This is a link to the video about that, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NMs3TI_oJjE.html Retreats aren't for everyone, however, I relly enjoy leaving The Engineer and my daily chores to just quilt, I always come back refershed and ready to hit the road running.

@JudithBrummett 2 года назад

@@sisterchicksquilting TY! I think I was just getting confused about the concept. I don't think I will be able to attend unless they have one for couples and therre are things for the guys to do lol but I would love to get together with other quilters sometime in the future.

@sisterchicksquilting 2 года назад

You may have something there. I bet there are a lot of spouses who would like to attend on those terms.
