Friendship Star Quilters Guild
Retreats
Every year on the third weekend in January (Martin Luther King weekend), Friendship Star Quilters Guild sponsors a retreat where quilters can sew 24/7, get to know other quilters, learn from each other, and if desired, get pampered with a massage. This is a wonderful opportunity to relax and explore creative potential.
