First up I have Photography with Judith Dahmen. Judith has a wonderful blog filled with eye candy so I am thrilled to have a chance to talk about photographing quilts with her. If I could even come close to what she creates I would be a happy girl.

On Saturday morning I will take Eraser Stamps with Tacha. I would love to make a little fluffy sheep stamp of my own. With a little googling I found a few other ideas that I like, too!

I then move on to hand quilting with Mandy. I have dabbled in hand quilting as an embellishment, but can't quite work out how to quilt a full quilt. The stitches on the quilt back go all funny and sideways. If I could ever create something like my two hand quilting heroes, I'd be thrilled.

And finally on Sunday morning I will learn Cathedral Windows from Brioni Greenberg. I would love to make a table runner (or something small) anywhere near as pretty as this.

I have high hopes, then. I know the weekend will be fantastic, but if I could learn and improve a bit more I'd be thrilled. If nothing else, the retreat is always a great source of inspiration and new friends. That alone gets my heart fluttering.

I'm so excited about the retreat too. Even if there were no classes I know I'd have a blast just meeting everyone and getting to talk 'quilts and fabric!'
You are so lucky to go there so everything else is the sugar on top! Great courses you are in. Have fun and enjoy
It's killing me learning what everyone is doing at FQR *sob* Great choice of classes Cindy - you're going to have a blast!
I'm psyched about my classes too! (insert image of twirling girlie) I'm coming with another gf & she'll be in the cathedral windows class with you (Gina Atwood). This is going to be so much fun!!
Annabella and I are both crying in our boots..... ( But we'll get over it it! ) The classes you have chosen sound wonderful! I look forward to seeing what you learn from the whole experience!
No classes together but plenty of time to hang out. Yay! And how nice of you to say you like my quilting. You will ace it and wonder what all the fuss was about.
Looking forward to hanging out with you and not cutting my fingers while carving stamps!
Can't wait to see you again!!
Once you become a master hand quilter, will you teach me?
I'm also in the stamps and cathedral windows classes!
how exciting! You'll have a blast Cindy!
Yeah two classes with you Cindy! I so want to learn the stamp thing!

You're going to have a blast!
Looks like an amazing time and something I would LOVE!
I would say "Have fun!" But I think that's a given!
I cannot wait to see you at the retreat. I think we have the photography class together.

Aww, darn, no classes together! Oh well, I'm sure we can create chaos out of class ;o)
Cathedral windows together!! xxx
I'm not in any of your classes sadly, but I know I will see you there and hopefully get time to chat! Jxo
OOOOO...friends and quilting, they go together like a big mac and fries, like Fred and Ginger... I guess I could go on and on! You get the picture.
You are doing some great classes. I can't wait, not long now
