The Quilters We Meet

One of the best things about the Retreat is the friends we make, some are new, some we haven't seen since the last Retreat and some we see all the time at Guild meetings, at our bee gatherings or at our favourite quilt stores.

Faye Palmeter and our "Avonport Scholarship Award for a Young Quilter" winner Kelly Booth

Jane Sassaman and the "Valley Girls" Barb, Jackie, Jane, Lois, Ginny and Debbie

Marie, Barb, Kay, Jean and Cheryl members of the Mayflower Quilters Guild. Barb & Kay have been to all 13 Retreats!

Some of the Nimble Thimbles and their fascinators, Marilyn, Donna, Liz, Karen and Irene.

Marie at work!
