Exploring the Idea of Sewing Retreats

Hello members! The Museum has been exploring the idea of a 4-5 day sewing retreat in Santa Barbara for 2023. Is this something you'd be interested in attending? We will supply you with the pattern. If there is enough demand, we could plan retreats every quarter. Please comment below. Would you visit Santa Barbara to attend a sewing retreat next year? Why or why not? Would you pay $995 to attend a four day retreat? Why or why not? Help us design an excellent program for you!
