Advanced Pro-Stitcher Retreat



In the Advanced Pro-Stitcher Retreat we go way beyond combining designs to creating new designs for whole quilts. This retreat is not for the faint-hearted or typical quilter. The participants must be extremely knowledgeable in using intermediate to advanced Pro-Stitcher functions and quilting. 

We dive into Pro-Stitcher Premium (aka Connect) and Pro-Stitcher Designer and use both to create awesomeness. In the show quilting world, it’s custom, custom, custom. In addition, we’ll explore using different textile mediums to create non-quilt quilted projects (for example, using upholstery fabric, wool, etc. to create home décor items.)


May add an extra night to arrive the day before classes begin.

All kits, fabric, thread and supplies will be provided for the retreat.
  • Taught hands-on on the latest version of Pro-Stitcher Premium (aka Connect) and Pro-Stitcher Designer (aka Software)
  • Classes begin at 10:00 am and will end at 4:30 pm the first 2 days. On the last day class will end at noon.
  • Grab what you want for breakfast, 3 lunches, 2 dinners and plenty of drinks and snacks.
  • Each evening there will be opportunities to work on additional projects.
