More Stitching time you say?? OK! Every year Jen Lee hosts several virtual events with her group #24Hoursofcrossstitch https://www.facebook.com/groups/701042970298246
This little retreat started last July when I thought it would be fun to stitch along with her, but also with a local group! Unfortunately, I couldn't get the room booked to coincide with her dates this summer and fall, but we're still going to have an amazing time!
Some people are #TeamSleep and will try and get 24 hours in total over the course of the weekend, and some are #TeamStitchALLNight. You DO NOT have to stitch for 24 hours in order to join us! Doesn't matter which group you fall in, we'd love to have you join us for a bunch of stitchy fun!
From Friday, September 26th 10am until Sunday, September 27th at 6pm, we will be stitching like crazy in the State Room at the La Quinta in Madison, WI. Come for some or come for all of it!
Details:
$45 for all 3 days includes pizza on Friday night
$20 for just Saturday
$15 for just Sunday
$25 for Friday and includes pizza dinner.
Due to how wonderfully fun it was, we will also be playing LCR again. More details as it gets closer 🙂 And who knows, maybe I'll pick up something else fun this year at Stitch Con!
We are a very low-key event. We don't have vendors or special classes, but we have good lighting, room to work, and a whole weekend of nothing else to worry about except stitching with new friends, laughing a lot, and learning the most ridiculous things. :)
As of right now, we have room for ~20 people, each getting half of a 6 or 8 ft. table. Payment required to secure your spot. Full refund before September 1st. After Sept 1st, full refund if I can fill your spot from the waiting list. Last day to sign up is Sept 22nd.
Sign-up by sending payment to Venmo @CraftingWithoutKids (Laser Cat Embroidery pic)
or PayPal FRIENDS AND FAMILY to: [email protected]
You are in charge of booking your own room.

There are plenty of outlets in the room for task lights and other things. I will bring extra extension cords and power strips in case we need them. Other than the food on Friday night, you are on your own for food and you are responsible for all beverages. There are lots of nearby restaurant options for going out or delivery and there is a fridge in the stitching room. Please dress in layers or bring hoodies/fans if you tend to run hot or cold. It's hard to keep a room full of people temperature happy. You know you best.
We will also have a Free Table for you to bring all the Stitchy stuff you have that just doesn't do it for you anymore. Just take home what doesn't get taken by someone else.
If you are unable to come, but want to keep up on when the next ones are scheduled, please join the Not So Serious Stitchers group https://www.facebook.com/groups/851863647128215
