I spent a delightful weekend with a group of talented quilters at the “Piecemakers” Retreat in Roxbury, Pennsylvania. I learned so much from them and they were all so generous with their knowledge. While there I worked on a baking themed quilt for Sister, who is a terrific cake and bread maker. She came up from Georgia to stay with Lincoln so I could go to the retreat when my regular sitter had an emergency out of state. As her birthday is in a few weeks and I had planned to make this quilt for her I decided to move it up so that I could give it to her while she was here. She loved it….and so did Paisley, her little Yorkie. I think Sister will have to share it with her. Happy Early Birthday!!!
It’s time to plan your trip to Capon Springs Resort and Farm. We’ll be having two paint parties…one on Friday night and one on Sunday night. This is our 6th collaboration between Capon Springs and The Studio as we hold a Spring Artist Retreat from Friday, June 5th thru Tuesday, June 9th. You can come anytime from Friday through Tuesday and stay for one night or all four. The best part of coming is that the $125 per person per night includes 3 meals per day (homemade all you can eat comfort food, some from the farm), art instruction and all other resort activities (except for golf and spa services). You can bring your own art supplies and improve your skills as you paint along…or if you don’t have art supplies and you want to give it a try, we will have supplies available for a small supply fee* for the things you want to try. How easy is that?! Click here for a copy of the Retreat Flyer: 
We are back at Capon Springs Farm and Resort for our 5th Retreat…and we are so glad to be back at this glorious place! Last night we had a wonderful group of painters creating a beautiful fall scene. Nice work all around.
