Get-Away Weekend

Quilters and Crafters, Get-Away Weekend 2010

Our Spacious "New" Classroom

The sixth annual QUILT GET-AWAY WEEKEND at Bristol Harbour overlooking beautiful Canandaigua Lake is April 1 – 3, 2011.  Don’t miss the best quilting event of the year.  If you’ve never attended, expect to be pampered while spending the weekend at this gorgeous resort.  I expect it to fill up fast this year, so don’t delay if you plan to attend.  Besides, if you register and pay in full before September 30, 2010, you’ll receive a coupon goon for one free class (up to a $60 value).  The price of the event is all-inclusive, which means it includes:

  1. Guest Speakers in 2010, Susan Rooney and Ruthann Stilwell

    Welcome bag of goodies and chocolate.

  2. Wine and cheese get-acquainted reception Friday evening.
  3. Gourmet meals (sit-down dinner Friday; continental breakfast, buffet lunch and sit-down dinner on Saturday; and new this year, a hot American breakfast buffet on Sunday).
  4. Luxurious Adirondack-style accommodations (rooms with fireplaces, heated bathroom floors and balconies facing the lake).
  5. Winter activities including walking trails and an outdoor hot tub.
  6. Three days of class instruction where you will learn a quick and easy quilt (includes free pattern).
  7. Special guest speaker/trunk show after lunch Saturday.
  8. Mini special-technique class Saturday afternoon (with a free kit).
  9. A free chair massage Saturday (always a favorite!)
  10. Everyone's Favorite, a Free Chair Massage

    Champagne hour Saturday night before dinner.

  11. Snacks and beverages available all weekend.
  12. Late night sewing each night in our spacious classroom.
  13. Chance to win the quilt block challenge.
  14. Big show & tell Sunday afternoon.
  15. Pedicures and Facials (for a nominal fee) Sunday.

As an all-inclusive retreat, this is a great value! Our pricing has stayed the same for the last three years although we’ve added lots of extras last year and this year, $359 per person for a triple (2 queen beds), $399 per person for a double(2 queen beds) and $499 per person for a single (1 king bed).

So why not join us and treat yourself to a whole weekend just for you? We all deserve a little time for ourselves. Bring a friend (even if she’s not a quilter) since this is really just a great weekend to have some fun with girlfriends and relax.
