Information on registration times
Registration for all classes, workshops, sew days, etc will be on the 1st Thursday of the month beginning at 8 am of the month of the event. If you don’t see an event listed, click on View Calendar below for Upcoming Events to see additional events. You will need to select each event separately. We are hoping this makes it easier for everyone. All retreat may have a different sign up date due to the costlier commitment.
