Let’s do a little quilting!

In this new retreat theme, we will be teaching different beginner quilting techniques to help you get into this fun hobby! Laura and Allyson leaned into quilting as the pandemic hit and found so much comfort in everything from the planning to the binding. Incorporating quilting into their retreats seemed like a natural fit!

We will be teaching blocks at every level - so as long as you know how to use a sewing machine you’ll be able to participate in this retreat. We’ll also be incorporating hand stitching/quilting!

And BRING YOUR KNITTING! We’ll have plenty of time for chill knit nights, and even get your knitting questions answered.

There will be a limited amount of sewing machines available to rent so bringing your own sewing machine is encouraged!

Pick a sweater (or sweaters!) of your choice and get hands on instruction focused on exactly what you need for your project. Pick and choose from a full schedule of break out classes including understanding gauge, seaming, blocking, picking up stitches, cabling without a cable needle, brioche, short rows, steeking, colorwork, as well as specific one on one sessions about literally anything you want to learn about!

We plan the class schedule around your needs and ask guests what they need help with. We also have a sign up sheet available all weekend long for one on one classes with Allyson & Laura so you can get your specific questions about your project answered. And LOTS of knitting time to make progress!

NEW THIS RETREAT - we are adding a natural dyeing aspect to this retreat, so we’ll be foraging around the property and learning about what items in nature create different colors in yarn. You’ll then have hands on dyeing instruction, and be able to use your yarn in your projects throughout the weekend!

Save the Date! Our next retreat in Southwest Michigan will be the weekend of March 19th. Details coming soon.
