Winter Rug Braiding Retreat,

We are having our 3^rd  rug braiding retreat in Kennebunk, Maine, on the 2^nd weekend in February the 8^th, 9^th, and 10^th, with Thursday as an option for some of us

to go another day longer on Feb., 7^th, Address is 26 Beach Ave., Kennebunk, Me.

I am the one hosting this event with help from my friends as well.

I am a bit late getting this notice out but am excited that we are going to have another year of rug braiding together in Kennebunk this year but it will be the 2^nd

weekend so we don’t have to compete with the Superbowl, and if we get over 20 people we will be having our retreat downstairs in the bigger room.

Kennebunk, Maine is a fun place to visit as it has a lot of historical places to visit, 2 wool shops to visit, and there is the beautiful Kennebunk beach that is in walking distance.

We’ve got some projects we are looking into such as a quillie project and another one we are working on. But mostly this is a weekend getaway, bringing your

Projects and possibly bringing a finished project for show and tell.  Breakfast is included, Thursday night is bring a potluck contribution, then we

Usually have left overs for lunch on Friday. Friday nights meal is put on by the Retreat House. Saturday we have planned to order out at the local Subway, and we

will have Pizza and salad on Saturday night. You have a refrigerator in your room if you want to bring other food. So I look forward to hearing from you and pass the

word on because we can have up to 30 people in the big room.

Email me at braidarug@gmail.com and I will send you the details.
