This workshop is an Independent Study retreat. An independent study retreat is not a "do-your-own-thing" retreat. It is a “let’s-make-your-vision-a-reality” retreat! Connecting with your creative psyche, the workshop emphasizes design, composition, and originality. Planning, drafting, and originality are encouraged. Creating improvisationally is encouraged too. It is a week of learning and designing. 

 

You will explore your own original ideas while benefiting from Ricky's guidance. Alternatively, you may pursue one of Ricky's methods or techniques to help advance your quilting skills. There is a strong emphasis on creativity and the morning talks, round-table discussions, and journaling time is a vital part of the week's agenda.

 

Retreat Tuition is $950 and includes five days of study, five lunches, and six dinners.

Drive and shop hop along the way, or make a convenient flight into Colorado Springs which is a short hour and forty-five minutes away.
