Annual Guild Retreat, September 20 - 23, 2016
Twenty-eight members traveled North to Country Lakes Christian Retreat Center for our annual quilt retreat. As in the past, a wonderful time was had by all. Not only are we blessed to have this love and skill of quilting, but our fellowship with other quilters is a treasure unto itself. We laughed, we cried, we thoroughly enjoyed our time together.
Our creative Guild President taught us the fine art of creating coasters from our favorite photographs. She was very patient with a roomful of novices handling Mod Podge and tile glue. It was a disaster waiting to happen, but Linda managed to avert each issue with calm solutions.
One of our favorite times of each day was Mealtime! Country Lakes takes very good care of us with nourishment for the soul and the body. My retreat goal this year was NOT to gain 20 pounds! A few of our favorite Country Lakes employees are pictured here.
AND THE WINNERS ARE:
And as always, there are organized and chaotic quilters among us. Which are you??
