It’s a New ERA for Stitch and SightSee in Montana.
After my long awaited, in person return to needlepoint market, I was incredibly excited and inspired by so many new designs. Bottom line, I couldn’t pick just one!
I came home with a case full of great canvases and not enough time to schedule classes and teach them all.
I’m making the call to offer not one, but four different canvases during the 3 days of class during the retreat. That’s right – You now get to choose between four absolutely fantastic designs!

Inspired by the grand lodges of bygone days, with all of the conveniences of a modern day resort, the Lodge at Whitefish Lake has returned a sense of leisure and grace to the Montana travel experience. The Lodge, with its glorious views of the mountains and Whitefish Lake, provide the perfect setting for our stitching retreat. Guest rooms in several categories including single bed, double bed and condos, have been blocked at reduced rates for our event.
The Lodge will honor these rates both before and after our event to extend your vacation. Book the room that’s best for you!
Room rates range from $289 to $949 per night, depending on room type (single, suite, condo, etc), location, bed type and view. Tax and local accommodation taxes are additional. The Lodge is ready to accept reservations. You will be given the reservation code when your deposit is received. Don’t delay in making room reservations. Rooms are booked first come/first served.
You will need a special code to receive the discounted room rates. I will provide that only after your deposit is received.
Most important, we will enjoy another over-the-top needlepoint experience and getaway!
