Information for the Members of the Baltimore MQG!
Un-Retreat 2020: Wanderlust!
Pack your bags (but not really) and sail away with us for the BMQG first ever (and hopefully last) digital retreat!Departure: November 6, 7 p.m.
Return: November 8, 1 p.m. (just in time for the guild meeting!)
First class seating: $20 (all proceeds will go towards purchasing prizes and swag)
Registration deadline: September 27th
Your travel guides will whisk you away for a weekend of sewing in places you never dreamt of hauling your machine.
To register please
- sign up here
- send your payment $20 through paypal.me/BaltimoreMQG (please include your name and full contact information in the “notes to seller” section of PayPal)
- send a photograph of yourself on a memorable trip to retreat@baltimoremqg.com (memorable can be good or bad, sometimes the best memories are of crying in the pouring rain after a 15 mile hike, because you can see your B&B, but just can’t figure out how to cross the river!). These images and short stories will be used during the opening session of the retreat.
