Avonport Award for a Young Quilter 2013
Once again, for the third time, we are thrilled to be able to support a young quilter with a full scholarship to attend the 2013 Quilter's Retreat at Pictou Lodge. The Avonport Award has been made possible thanks to the generous support of Faye Brown at Avonport Discount Fabrics, Avonport, Nova Scotia.
The scholarship provides a young quilter with a full Retreat package - a 3 day workshop of choice, 11 gourmet meals at Pictou Lodge, accommodation at Pictou Lodge for 4 nights and a wonderful experience with 60 plus quilters and teachers! You just have to get yourself to Picotu Lodge and bring along your supplies for your workshop.

The criteria is pretty simple - you must be a resident of Nova Scotia, you must be between the age of 19 and 40 (born between 1973 and 1994). There is an application form to fill out and sent in accompanied by photos illustrating your quilt/fibre experience. You do not need to be a member of a quilt guild. You do not need to be an experienced quilter - just willing to learn!
For more information and a registration form please contact Sandra at sandycolville@aim.com
