Tucker Boot Camp: The Sisters Way [May 13–17, 2026]
@ Maryvale Retreat Center – Valley City, North Dakota

Ready to sharpen your quilting skills and build a rock-solid foundation with your Studio 180 tools? Join The Sisters—Studio 180 Certified Instructors—for Tucker Boot Camp: The Sisters Way, a dynamic, immersive retreat designed to take your quilting confidence to the next level.

Whether you're new to the tools or looking to perfect your techniques, this boot camp will walk you through a comprehensive curriculum of Studio 180 methods, all taught with our signature teaching style—equal parts education, encouragement, and energy.

 What You’ll Experience:

• Hands-on instruction using the full range of Studio 180 tools

• Step-by-step skill-building designed for true learning (not just demonstration!)

• In-depth focus on technique sheets, trimming, alignment, and tool versatility

• Fun, friendship, and focused learning in a peaceful, welcoming retreat setting

Ongoing Support—Beyond the Retreat:
Your learning doesn't stop when the retreat ends! As a Boot Camp attendee, you’ll also become part of our ongoing virtual learning community:

• Perfectly Squared – our online platform dedicated to Studio 180 instruction, structured for long-term growth

• Private Facebook Group – a supportive space to ask questions, share progress, and stay connected with your Sisters-in-stitches
  

Taught by “The Sisters”—Tracey Stinger and Becky Malarski—who combine quilting expertise with a yin-and-yang blend of structure and creativity to support every learning style.

Note: Tucker Boot Camp is a focused educational experience offered in conjunction with the retreat—it is not required to attend the retreat itself. You're welcome to retreat, relax, and recharge without enrolling in Boot Camp.
