Supply list?

[judykay]

Where would I find the list of supplies that has been posted in the past for what things we should bring for the retreat? I have looked back on the 2019 group and couldn't find it. Could someone please help me? Thanks

I don't think they have a supply list put together yet. That will probably come out after the mini lessons are finalized.

I was wanting like the one they had last year before the retreat on things you should remember to bring. Even your personal items. I wanted to share it with a friend so she knows what to start thinking about gathering up for her first retreat! Thanks

Here is the link: https://forum.missouriquiltco.com/just-for-fun/-2020-fall-forum-retreat/1840293- On our group page, if you go under topics, you can find all of the posts that were posted before the change over. It has been a challenge learning how to figure out the way the new pages operate. I will be adding supplies for various classes as they become available.

And here is the list Below is a list of Retreat Packing items that might help you figure out what you want to pack. This is a list is compiled from many people bring – please don’t feel like you need to bring everything on the list as this is to just give you some ideas of what you might want to bring.
***Please label your items as many have the same brand of item or things are borrowed and it is easier to return the items to the owner.***
