Our fourth annual Buckeye Sewing Retreat is now over, and
what a great time we had. It was a fun and very talented
group of ladies. We came from as far away as Texas and
Michigan, and all parts around Ohio. We got a lot of projects
finished, and a few new ones started. The most frequent
feedback was that the retreat wasn't long enough, so I'd say
we really enjoyed ourselves.
It was held October 26-28, 2007 at the Hilton Garden Inn Columbus at
Polaris, north of Columbus and just west of I-71.
Liked most: the freedom to do what you want, sewing
demonstrations, new ideas, and sharing. --Linda

A Look Back
2006 - The
3rd Annual Buckeye Sewing Retreat was held October
13-15, 2006 at Marblehead, Ohio. When we asked
"What did you like about this retreat?", we were
delighted with the responses...
Meeting new people and seeing old
friends.
Time to share and learn new ideas,
from the retreat staff and other retreat members.
Plenty of space to sew.
Sewing all day, on whatever you want
and getting projects done.
Jan and the Nautical Needle Quilt
Shop.
"The food was really good."
"Food service staff outstanding."
We were please when we asked "What
did you like least about the retreat?" and heard...
2005 - The 2nd Annual Buckeye Retreat was a huge success. Everyone had
such fun, even those of us who were "working". When you love what
you do, it's tough to call it work. Check out the 2005 pictures and see
for yourself. One person even commented, "I've had two-week
vacations and have never felt as rested and good about myself as I did
after this two-day retreat."
2004 - Our 1st Buckeye Sewing Retreat was held on September 17-19,
2004 at Cherry Valley Lodge. Wow, what a great weekend! We had
26 women from around Ohio and Indiana who cut, sewed, ironed, laughed,
ate, had lots of fun, and even rooted the Buckeyes on to victory.
There were a number of mother/daughter duos, several groups of friends,
one set of sisters, and a number of individuals who came and made new
friends. See photos of the 2004
Buckeye Sewing Retreat.
