Quilt Camp 2010

Finally, I have worked out the details for October 2010 Quilt Camp at The Red Jacket Beach Resort in West Yarmouth, Massachusetts, here on beautiful Cape Cod. This wonderful hotel in on the ocean with a spacious sewing room and unbelievable views. The food is fresh and plentiful. Located only a few miles from Heartbeat, we have had several camps in this location and love it there (can you tell). Here’s the link to The Red Jacket Beach Resort.
 
At this fall’s camp I will be offering Harriet Hargrave’s Quilter’s Academy, Freshman Year, at no additional cost to campers. My plan is to teach the course three hours a day, starting Thursday, October 14 at 10am and continuing through Monday, October 18 (9am-Noon). The course needs 15 hours to give you the essence of Freshman Year (it will be condensed because it takes 21 hours of classroom to complete the full course).
 
This course is designed for in depth exploration of quilting for experienced or wannabe quilters. Whether you have been quilting for 100 years or you’ve never quilted before, it’s for you. The instruction is for machine, not hand sewing. The Thursday Class #1 will be held at Heartbeat Quilts in Hyannis. Class #1 does not require a sewing machine, just Harriet’s book and something for you to take notes on, or a highlighter to use your book as a workbook. There is no additional fee for this opportunity.

There are a few requirements:
• You must have a copy of Harriet’s book Quilter’s Academy, Freshman Year
• You must take the course in order of days offered. #1 is on Thursday and if you can’t take the class Thursday, you are not eligible to continue taking this course throughout the weekend (sorry, this is very important)
• You are not obligated to take the course at all and Camp will be just as it always has been with sewing all day and night, demos and fun and food and other opportunities
• In order to participate in the Quilter’s Academy, Freshman Year, you must stay at the hotel for a minimum of four nights. I have made special arrangements to keep prices down. The minimum overnight stays at the hotel would be (Wed/Thu/Fri/Sat or Thu/Fri/Sat/Sun). Of course you can stay for five nights. The course is free for Campers only, and is taught by me (Helen Weinman)

I have negotiated special rates for the extra nights. All prices include two lunches (Sat/Sun) and two dinners (Fri/Sat), gratuities, and taxes. For campers staying Sunday night at the hotel we will also have a special dinner at Heartbeat Quilts as a social event (no additional charge). 2010 Camp prices are:
• 2 nights: Friday/Saturday night (sewing Friday 4pm through Sunday 4pm) $559/pp double
• 3 nights: Thurs/Fri/Sat nights (sewing Thurs 1pm through Sunday 4pm) $729/pp double
• 4 nights: Thurs/Fri/Sat and EITHER Wed OR Sun (sewing Thurs 1pm through Sun 4pm and Quilter’s Academy, Freshman Year, and Class #1 on Thursday 9am-Noon) $799/pp double
• 5 nights: Thurs/Fri/Sat and both Wed and Sun nights (sewing Thurs 1pm through Sun 4pm and Quilter’s Academy, Freshman Year, and Class #1 on Thursday 9am-Noon and Class #5 on Monday) $849/pp double
