UFO (Unfinished Object) Challenge Retreat: March 3 - 6, 2026

How many UFOs can you conquer in a week? Join us for The Great UFO Challenge, where the focus is all about tackling those unfinished projects you’ve been putting off! This new, UFO-themed retreat invites you to quilt alongside friends while making serious progress on your to-do pile.

Running from Monday to Thursday, the retreat includes three nights of lodging and 9 delicious meals, providing everything you need for a productive and enjoyable stay. Check in on Monday is at 9am.

What to Expect From Us:

Sleeping Rooms - 10 rooms are upstairs and are shared - there are no private rooms available and a chair lift is available for assistance. There are two ADA rooms available upon request.

Meals - Please note that lunches will no longer be provided during our regular retreats.

For Early Bird Arrivals:

For All Guests:

• Tuesday evening: Dinner will be served.
• Wednesday & Thursday: Continental breakfast and dinner will be provided.
• Friday morning: A hot farewell breakfast awaits before your departure!

Snacks - We set out a snack table - because sewing definitely makes us all snack-y. We provide light snacks for the group but if there is something particular you crave, feel free to bring it.

Sewing Table Seating - We do have assigned seating for the well-lit 4' sewing tables (personal sewing lamps are optional). If you are traveling with a friend or friends and would like to sit together - no problem! Please just indicate this on your registration form with the names of the people you wish to sit by. We also provide cutting/ironing tables, and power strips and small side tables.

Sewing Machines -

• Feel free to bring your own machine (and all cords!).
• Alternatively, reserve one of our machines for the duration of your stay, free of charge.
• If you need a rental machine, please indicate this on your registration form.

We know things happen, but if for some reason you need to cancel after you have booked your reservation, please let us know as soon as possible. The retreat is only fully refundable 60 days in advance of the start date. In the event that you are past the 60-day notice and are unable to attend, you may transfer your reservation to someone else or move to another retreat at a later date.
