About the retreatOtter Creek Retreat will be hosting “Quilting for Beginners Retreat” and is open to the public. This retreat is for those wanting to learn how to quilt. During this retreat weekend, the student will make a lap quilt as shown on this flyer. Prior to the class, you will make a trip to your favorite fabric store for your supplies. (See Supply List) You get to choose your own fabrics and color palette for your quilt. Each student should know basic sewing and must bring your sewing machine in good working order. It is very important to be familiar with your machine.
