Agenda
  • Show and Tell - Bring your work and let us admire you and your art
  • "Design Basics" - A full-day class offered by Lyric Kinard:
    I am working on a book following up on my articles in Quilting Arts Magazine about basic design. For the workshop I would like to go over some of the design basics, handing out quick assignments then working through some of the exercises from my book. I would love to have a whole "student's gallery" section in my book if you are willing to share your resulting artwork. Of course this whole thing would be free and optional.
  • Work in Progress - Sit and stitch with friends
    Mary Beth generously allows us to use a large workspace in her house.
    The workspace offers:
    • Shared ironing and cutting table stations
    • Your own 60" x 24" table/chair
    • Sitting area for reading or hand-work
    What to bring:
    • Whatever project(s) you want to work on
    • Your own chair if you are picky about your seating
    • Extension cord/outlet strip
    • Table light if you REALLY need it bright
    • Your sewing supplies
  • PAQA-South business meeting
 
Accomodations
  • At Mary Beth's house: non-smoking house with indoor cats; upstairs bedrooms (4 bedrooms, I can fit up to 3-4 (friendly) people per room (shared queen/ 1 or 2 twin air mattresses on the floor). 9-10 people max. First Come/First Serve!
  • Holiday Inn (I64 & 5th St) 434-977-5100       $139 double
  • Sleep Inn (smoking rooms only) 434-244-9969 $129 double
    Both hotels are about 10 min away. Since space is limited call soon!
 
Food

We will do a shared dinner Friday & Saturday night, breaking into groups to cover the cooking/clean up on one night. You should plan to bring whatever you want to eat for breakfast, lunch, snacks, drinks, etc.  We’ll set up a snack area so people can contribute/forage from that depending on what looks irresistible. I have a regular size family refrigerator/freezer so we may have to keep things in personal coolers if it gets really crowded.
