Quilter's Guild of Dallas

Guild Retreat

Each year, the Guild sponsors a long weekend retreat at Tanglewood Resort on Lake Texoma. Typically, the weekend that includes the Martin Luther King, Jr. birthday celebration is chosen, since many employers give their staff Monday off - hence, maximum sewing time! Attendees get to have someone else do the cooking while they do nothing but relax with friends and other kindred spirits, finishing UFO's (unfinished objects), work on show entries, starting new projects, making Covers for Kids, or anything else that they feel like doing.

Tanglewood is a full-service resort, so in addition to simply sitting and sewing with the group in the ballroom or relaxing alone in their hotel room, attendees may also opt to take advantage of SPA services available. (hot stone treatments were quite popular in 2009!)

This year the dates for the retreat will be Thursday, January 13 through Monday January 17, 2011. Registrations will be accepted after September 1, 2010. Retreat Forms for the 2011 Retreat will be available soon.
