Wonder Cut Ruler Spring 2009 Retreat
(not your average quilting retreat!) May
15-17, 2009
Our Spring 2009 Wonder Cut Ruler Retreat was held May 15-17, 2009 at
the Marsh
Creek Event Centre located in the beautiful Albion Valley here in Idaho.
Albion is about 18 miles from Burley.
We started off the retreat with the traditional ringing of the school
bell. As our quilters entered the main retreat room, they were
greeted by our theme "Ready ... Set ... Quilt!"
Our quilters introduced
themselves as
they showed their "Bring 'n Brag". We had quilters from Wyoming,
Oregon, and Idaho join
us.
Projects for this retreat included the Wonder Cut Quilting Smock, Heart
Patches, and Doggie Quilt.
These are some of the wonderful quilts
made for our challenge.
We issue a challenge at every retreat by giving 1/2 yard of fabric to
those
that want to participate. The completed quilts are judged by a
"Viewer's Choice."
The winner gets 10 yards of fabric, but the real winners are the
kids in Foster Care in Minidoka and Cassia County.
The quilts are given to the kids as part of our Christmas Basket
Program.
Vicki N. from Idaho was a repeat winner with her
cute Froggy Quilt.
