IMPORTANT! If you have special dietary needs, please let us know at time of registration.

What to Bring? With your confirmation, we will send a suggested packing list of things previous “Brown Baggers” recommend you not forget!

Fat or Lean Quarter Exchange: Should you choose to participate, bring four fat or lean quarters of your choice in an unmarked “Brown Bag.” We’ll trade them on Saturday night. This is a great way to build your stash!

Block Exchange: Participation is optional. A pattern and focus fabric will be mailed to you with your confirmation one month prior to your Retreat. This year’s pattern is a half-square triangle (HST) block. We will send SIX 5" charm squares to you with your pattern. You will provide SIX 5" neutral, tone-on-tone squares. This will yield 12 blocks. You will keep SIX of the HST blocks and turn in the other SIX for exchange. After the exchange, you will be the owner of 12 HST scrappy blocks!

Chair Massage: On Saturday, our friend and local masseuse, Joachim (Joe) Cretin, will be on-hand to lend his talent to our aching backs. Relaxing chair massages will be available for a small fee. After sewing all day Friday it’s a nice treat!!

Please Note!! Space for our special get-away is limited. Download your Registration Form HERE!
