THE MARSHALL HOUSE

SAVANNAH, GEORGIA

OCTOBER 21-24, 2021

Savannah

Stitchers will experience Savannah, Georgia, allowing for exploration of the city, needlework free-time, and individualized class instruction. The Marshall House Hotel is the thread that binds together the weekend, located in the heart of historic Savannah; it will be the base for gatherings. Stitchers will experience Savannah and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow needleworkers who share your passion. The first day is devoted to open stitching either sitting near the Marshall House’s fireplace or working on projects from the vantage of the hotel’s balcony. The day concludes with a pleasant trolley tour of Savannah, which features manicured parks, antebellum architecture, and a cast of colorful Savannahian characters. The next two days involve class with Fern Ridge Collections. There are two options for stitchers either a dedicated open-stitching weekend or one that includes open-stitching and a class with Fern Ridge Collections. Join us in Savannah and experience the city, connect with other stitchers, and enrich your life with travel.

Registration is Open!
