Stitch a Spell with Spellbound Stitchery Retreat
Our retreat returns to downtown Rutherfordton bigger and better than ever September 26-28th, 2025. Tickets will go on sale June 27th at 8 pm EDT.
Join Spellbound Stitchery for our second in-person stitching retreat! Spend the weekend with Stephanie in Historic downtown Rutherfordton, NC to kick off your Spooky Season.
This will be a small retreat, with an anticipated head count of 18 participants. Tickets will be available first come first served starting June 27 at 8 PM EDT. Ticket prices will be $400 each.
Participants will get a weekend's worth of activities in the North Carolina Foothills, a goodie bag full of spooky season gifts, and the choice between a personal experience of a hand massage or individual Tarot reading.
Ticket fees help to cover the costs of the event venues, tour bus, Saturday and Sunday luncheons, snacks and drinks, wine, your individual chosen experience (either hand massage or Tarot reading) support staff, and logistical needs for the weekend.
Ticketed participants who need lodging are encouraged to reach out to the Carrier Houses Bed and Breakfast directly to book rooms there, or reach out to Stephanie to book the Firehouse Inn. Some rooms at the Firehouse inn have multiple beds and may be suitable for shared expense.
We have a packed schedule of events and things to do over the weekend, so bring needlepoint projects that are good on the move!
*Please note: The Firehouse Inn and Carrier Houses Bed and Breakfast are historic structures with only stair access to the main event spaces.
