Immerse yourself in a week-long quilting getaway where creativity and community come together to spark joy and inspiration! At the Violet Quilts Fall Retreat, participants will have the chance to work on a range of fun and engaging projects, surrounded by the cozy ambiance of a welcoming, quilt-loving group. Whether you’re interested in learning new techniques, piecing together a unique seasonal project, or simply focusing on those unfinished objects (UFOs) that have been patiently waiting for your attention, this retreat offers the perfect balance of education and relaxation.
One of the retreat highlights is a hands-on Seasonal Machine Embroidery Project, guided by expert instructor Joanne Townson. This project will take participants through every step of creating a stunning seasonal wall-hanging, with a focus on hooping, design placement, and embroidery techniques. For those looking to challenge themselves, there’s also Sheri and Rachel’s Mystery Quilt, an exciting, step-by-step quilt reveal that keeps everyone guessing while providing a unique, cozy design perfect for the season.
And for those quilters who have half-finished projects tucked away at home, the retreat’s UFO Completion Section provides the perfect space to finally cross those items off the to-do list! With snacks and camaraderie, you’ll have all the support and fun you need to finish those gifts or projects you've been dreaming about. Throughout the retreat, you’ll have plenty of time to socialize, share tips, and create lasting memories with fellow quilting enthusiasts, all while indulging in the joy of creating something beautiful.
