Hi Friend,

I’m so glad you reached out about the Pro-Stitcher 701: Storytelling Through Stitching Retreat.

This retreat is truly magical. It’s where quilting shifts from “filling space” to “creating atmosphere.” Snow drifting behind cabins. Birds perched on twig arms. Backgrounds that feel like they’re breathing.

Now let me clarify something important.

701 is built specifically for longarm quilters using Pro-Stitcher. We provide the machines here, so you do not have to own one to attend. However, the techniques are designed for those who already understand longarm fundamentals.

If you don’t currently own a longarm or Pro-Stitcher, I’d love to know:

Are you exploring whether longarm quilting might be in your future?

If so… we have the perfect starting point.

In April, we’re hosting an Exploring Longarm Quilting with Handi Quilter event. It’s hands-on, low pressure, and designed specifically for quilters who are curious about longarming but aren’t sure if it’s right for them.

It’s a chance to:
• Test drive the machines
• Understand frame systems and space needs
• Experience Pro-Stitcher in a foundational way
• Ask every question you’ve been wondering about

Many quilters attend that event first… and then decide whether advanced creative retreats like 701 are their next step.

So tell me a little about where you are:

Are you longarm-curious?

Already quilting on a frame?

Or just drawn to the storytelling design aspect?

Once I know that, I can guide you toward the best fit.

Warmly,
Donna

P.S. If you already own (or have access to) a longarm with Pro-Stitcher or Pro-Stitcher Lite, please respond back to this email letting me know what information you would like to know about this retreat.
