Twice per year (Spring & Fall) the Guild has a representative that
organizes our weekend retreat at Camp Abnaki in Grand Isle, VT.
This is an opportunity for members to get together for 2 1/2 days of
un-interrupted quilting. On Friday participants bring their sewing
machines and projects to work independently.
There are group activities such as mystery block, block swaps, yard sale,
show and tell, and a Saturday evening activity such as Yankee swap,
Quilto, or a story. All activities are voluntary and are done in the
dining hall.
With the facility comes a wonderful cook, who loves to cook for our group.
She cooks good meals that always leave us stuffed.
The fee we individually pay allows us to sleep over in the cabins on site.
Quilters essentially check in with the guild organizer, set up their work
area, select their sleep quarters, and get busy, sewing and visiting with
fellow quilters. Checkout time is Sunday afternoon.
The guild has been doing this camp for 8 years now. It began as an
experiment back in 2000, and as of spring of 2008 has been expanded to
include an all day Thursday session.
