Quilt Retreats

A Quilter's Touch retreat is an opportunity to indulge yourself; relax, rejuvenate, create and enjoy. Take pleasure in the camaraderie of others in a stress-free atmosphere. The time is your own. This is your chance to treat yourself.

Unwind in private accommodations with a shared bath in the magnificent 1879 Stella Maris Retreat and Renewal Center. Dine on delicous home-style meals while you overlook beautiful Skaneateles lake. Participate in the optional project or simply enjoy sewing among friends.

Looking to stretch your legs? The Finger Lakes town of Skaneatles is a short walk and offers an array of boutique shopping.

As a quilt retreat hostess since 1999 I feel that it's a unique time when women not only have the opportunity to share quilting and sewing tips, but to share life experiences--where you can take a break from hectic lifestyles and nourish yourself.
