Crafting Retreat at Lutherlyn

November 18—23, 2025      Registration Deadline: November 11, 2025

Do you feel like you need a vacation just so you can finish a project or try your hand at a new crafting hobby? 

Lutherlyn’s Crafting Retreats are the perfect opportunities for you!
You choose the length of your stay and bring your quilting, scrapbooking, or other craft supplies, and we take care of the rest!  

Retreat Focus
Lutherlyn’s Crafting Retreats provide time to work on projects while offering a lot of fun and fellowship with fellow crafters.  You’ll be provided with your own table/work space with access to electricity.  Our Crafty Ladies have varied interests such as quilting, weaving, scrapbooking, knitting, jewelry making, painting, and many others.  Some ladies come with friends and some arrive alone and make friends while crafting, but everyone shares a lot of laughs. 

There is a special social hour on Saturday evening with a raffle basket drawing (every retreat participant will be entered), the popcorn machine will be in the lobby every afternoon, "show and tell" on Sunday morning, and other fun surprises.
