Moose Lake Quilt Retreat Info


Hey Friends and blog visitors, thought I'd update this before any of you came to see stuff and found nothing.  SO, I'm going to upload a copy of the Quilt Retreat brochure so anyone can print and then register by mailing in; I'm going post some pictures of the Beginner Project (Fat 1/4 lap quilt) and a couple of pictures from an earlier post that showcase the possibilities of the "Stack'nWack" project that Adina Boschman will be teaching.  If you've got any questions, it would be best to email me at vpank@mts.net.  Hopefully these posts will lure you out to Moose for the weekend.

This is the beginner lap quilt.  It can be done with one feature fabric like this picture or, each point of the star can be done with a different co-ordinating fabric (8 fat 1/4's), you also need a cbackground, neutral fabric.  It's got a country look when done with different plaids/homespuns.

Okay, having some trouble with the PDF Registration form.  The "Stack'nWack" is on my earlier April 15, post so you can see the squares there.  I'll try to fix the other posts later, sorry ...email me and I'll send them to you :)

Preparing to retreat!

Hey Friends, I'm planning the Moose Lake Quilting retreats even as I enter an update here.  I hope to post a registration form here within the week!  Looking forward to celebrating 10 years at Moose.  Come on out and celebrate with me (and others!) or just do a drop in for the day on either Saturday and bring your show and tell.  Hope to post the brochure here  as well.  First weekend October 31, Nov 1&2, is a project completion weekend, bring all those Moose Lake UFO's and finish them, and bring all the Moose Lake projects you've finished for show and tell!  Nov 7.8.&9 is a Kaleidescope stack and whack with Adina Boschman and she'll have all sorts of appropriate fabrics for purchase so either drop in at her store before retreat, on your way out or she'll bring it with her.  You can see my squares for this project on my previous post.  This weekend will also have open house on Saturday.  Judy Blatz is doing a "baby blanket blitz" for the Villa Rosa on both weekends so you can donate your one meter flannel or panel pieces and come help "tie" up some blankets for charity.  Lots of fun stuff.  Hope to see you out!
