Every year a group of us get together, usually in June/July at this fabulous retreat centre. This year we decided to give February a try also, but it was so hot, and not as many could make it , so we'll stick with July at this stage.
This is a convention centre, not just for quilters, so no quilts on the beds. 😉 We often share the centre with other people, but have our own rooms and space for sewing.
All meals are prepared for us, and bedding and towels all provided.
It is indeed a place to relax, and do what you want. Even go for a swim. The beach is about 100 metres away. (guess! )
View towards my bedroom from deck.
View from the sewing room.
Long Bay on the East Coast of Auckland.
I was standing on the deck outside my bedroom looking towards the sewing room.
We usually have approx. 18 - 20 people attend, but this time only 9, so plenty of space to spread out!
Some of the work the girls were working on in between eating!
I managed to sew the 12 blocks above, now to sash, and get ready for the long arm quilter.
