Spring Retreats 2009 with Jackie
near Kalispell, MT
June 5 - 8, 2009 - 1 space available
June 8 - 11, 2009 - 3 spaces available

Each Spring, quilters gather from all over our Country (and Canada) to celebrate the joys of quiltmaking in Jackie's Retreats.

Here's the '09 lineup. There is a traditiional quilt, a Frank Lloyd Wright quilt (several of you requested), pillows to decorate your home, a mystery, plus a surprise project. The 'surprise' project is different than the mystery - provided in kit format. I'll NEVER post the photos of the Mystery or the Surprise -- that would spoil the Surprise and the Mystery! ;-)

Supply lists are links at the bottom of this page.

Our sewing space is generous. Food is tasty. Sleeping rooms are lovely. We have 4 to a room. Each lady has her own bed. Each room has a private bath.

One price includes 3 nights lodging, SIX meals (large breakfast and supper), and the ENTIRE QUILTING EXPERIENCE with Jackie Robinson. All for only $ 375. Should you need to cancel before 2/28/09, $90. of your deposited $100. registration fee will be refunded. After 2/28/09, refunds are given IF your reserved space can be filled, less $10.

SO - here's the inside scoop. To secure your place in Jackie's Quilt Retreat '09, send your $375. payment check to Jackie Robinson.

The projects are always fun and selected for variety. Good quilts! - even if I do say so myself!

We begin at 5:00 pm with supper and continue until 3 pm on the final day. After an opening show & tell, projects are presented. Some gals seem to like to stitch into the wee hours, and I'll certainly keep them busy. There will be 4 projects this year, and the projects are planned to show various techniques. Always a surprise, as well. Some quilters start everything - some select to only do a couple of quilts. While there's lots presented, we are pressure-free. Everyone has the option to work at her own pace. And, of course, this is a group of quilters so the company is superb! We fill to 48 women participants. Quilters will join us from all over the Country - and local, too.

Please mail your reservation check for $375. to Jackie Robinson, 830 Douglas Hill Road, Eureka, MT 59917. The best way to reach me is with email. info@animas.com

I suspect you'll have other questions, so please do ask. We're planning ahead for another great Spring Quilt Retreat
