Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Members of the Piecemakers Quilters met recently for their first quilting  retreat of the year at Triple J on Interstate Drive in Mocksville.

The three-day event allowed attendees to work on personal projects  while enjoying fellowship and fun with others sharing the same passion.  Quilters often learn new and simplified techniques  to help with designs.

One of the goals of the group is to sponsor three retreats each year.  The first two are held in April and August at local venues. The third one is four days and four nights at Valle Crucis with lodging and meals included.

Piecemakers Quilters meet on the fourth Wednesday at the Flow Club,  Truist Ballpark in Winston-Salem.  Meetings are preceded by a buffet lunch.
