Swapaholics - A modern sewing retreat in Wilmington, NC for all the swap lovers out there!
What will we do?
Imagine a weekend filled with friends, time to sew, and the opportunity to learn new projects and techniques from some amazingly creative teachers. Each class will be geared toward items that will make great swap gifts. We will also have a handful of swaps going on throughout the weekend, as well as a pre-retreat swap. Classes are not mandatory, though we're sure you won't want to miss out on any of them! Expect a laid back schedule, with plenty of time to sew and relax with friends. And if you want to take a break from it all, downtown Wilmington is a destination not to be missed.
What will be included?
Included in your ticket cost will be access to the sewing room from Thursday night--Sunday morning as well as 6 classes! We have a variety of classes that will be taught by some of our favorite modern sewists. A detailed list of fabric requirements for each class will be available so that you can prepare your favorite prints for the projects. Additional class supplies such as batting and miscellaneous sewing notions will be provided for you. We are particularly excited about the amazing swag bag you will receive upon arrival! There will also be lots of giveaways and prizes throughout the retreat.
This doesn't even include the swag you get from swapping!
What is not included?
The cost of the retreat ticket does not include meals or sleeping arrangements. There is a wide variety of amazing restaurants and eateries within walking distance to the hotel (downtown Wilmington has so much to offer!). There will be discounted hotel rooms available at the Hilton, but if you're looking for something a bit more cozy, there are several bed and breakfasts that are within walking distance to the hotel.
Where will the retreat be held? Wilmington Riverside Hilton
When will it be? September 24th-27th 2015
