May Mester #3
Thursday April 30 – Sunday May 3, 2015
Camp Gravatt Conference Center
Aiken, S. C.
4 days and 3 nights of quilting fun with
the Frayed Knots of One Loose Thread.
Karen Conley, Certified Judy Neimeyer
Instructor
‘Fire Island Hosta’ and others!!!
Class will begin
after supper on Thursday night with 2 hours of prep and instruction. We will
continue with 6 hours on Friday and 6 hours on Saturday. Class instruction will
conclude on Sunday morning with 2 hours of ‘wrap up’ between breakfast and
lunch. That’s 16 hours of professional
instruction!! Where else would you find that except at a One Loose Thread
event!! In between class times it will be ‘free time’ for working on your class
project, a ufo, or reading or walking around the beautiful retreat site or just
taking naps, as you choose.
Lodging will be
provided on site. You may choose from a quaint cottage room that shares a
bathroom with the room next door or a lodge room with 2 double beds and its own
bathroom. I have set aside just a few single rooms for this event and they will
be first come first served. All other rooms will be doubles. If you can’t find
a roommate, I will be glad to try to pair you with someone that will be
compatible for you. With very few exceptions, all rooms are on the ground
level.
Yes, we do have a
special rate for day students!! See the registration form for additional
information.
All meals, 9 of them, are included in your registration
fee and will be prepared and served by the fantastic kitchen staff at Gravatt.
If you have special diets or food restrictions please note that on your
registration forms so that we can address those. I promise that you won’t go
hungry during your stay with us.
All classroom space
will be close to lodging and the dining hall. I usually tell everyone the
longest distance to the dinner table is 100 yards. Classroom space is on the
ground level, so no steps to climb.
Class Information:
Karen Conley, Certified Instructor for Judy
Neimeyer, is returning for another weekend with the Frayed Knots. This time she
will be teaching ‘Fire Island Hosta’ and Hosta Queen. No, you don’t have to
work on the Hosta’s, as a plus, Karen will be available to help with other Judy
Neimeyer patterns that you have already started and might be causing you
problems. Judy has published 2 ‘leaf’ patterns that would work really well for
you if you don’t want to start something really big. However, these other
patterns must be cleared through Karen so that she can make sure she is
familiar with them. Please understand that the primary focus is the Hosta.
Patterns can be ordered from Karen at a discount. She will also kit this for
you if you would like it done like that. She just needs ample notice…..like
immediately.
