About This Retreat
Craving calm, connection, and creativity? Step away from the hum of machines and into a peaceful retreat designed just for handwork lovers. Whether you’re an appliqué aficionado, a hand‑quilting devotee, or simply enjoy stitching at your own pace, this gathering is your sanctuary.
What to Expect:
This retreat celebrates the art of slow stitching—where every thread tells a story and every moment invites mindfulness. Nancy welcomes all hand crafters to join her for a few days of inspiration, camaraderie, and gentle guidance. Bring your current project or start something new— she’ll be there to help you get going, answer questions, and cheer you on.
Machine‑Free Zone (Mostly!)
While this retreat centers on handwork, you’re welcome to bring your machine if you need it for binding or joining panels—especially if you're diving into a Hawaiian quilt.
Materials Included
- Snacks & beverages to keep you fueled
- Exclusive retreat‑day discounts at Quilting Mayhem
- Demos and tips from Nancy
- Show & Share to celebrate your progress
Project Inspiration
Bring your favorite handwork project—or try something new! Nancy can assist with:
- Hawaiian quilts

- Needleturn appliqué (she’ll show you how!)
Lunch Tip: Bring a packed lunch or enjoy one of the nearby restaurants during the break.
Parking Note: Feel free to unload your supplies at the front doors. We just ask that you move your car afterward so parking stays available for shoppers.
Beginners Welcome! Confident beginners will feel right at home. Nancy will spend time with you to get you started and answer any questions.
