The Needle & Thread Emporium

"We are excited to announce our very 1st Retreat"

Quilters and hand-stitchery enthusiasts alike will be warmly welcomed to join us for a fun-filled, relaxing creative getaway.

Hosted by Barb, Owner of The Needle & Thread Emporium.

Come and enjoy a fun filled, relaxing retreat at the The Quality Inn & Conference Centre in Pembroke Ont. This venue checks all the boxes we were looking for: a fantastic retreater space that can be divided so we can also offer specialty workshop(s), comfortable, clean rooms PLUS an indoor pool/sauna, delicious lunches & suppers. Best of all, the pricing is very reasonable.

We are aiming for October 19-22 (this is just tentative). I’ve been chatting with Carla Alexiuk and she has some excellent options for one, full-day workshops. Sharon Fisher also offers some great workshops in hand stitchery. As well I am planning a small workshop for the hand stitchers too!
