Immersive weekend event invites sewists to create, connect, and enjoy hands-on projects in a collaborative setting
MOUNT KISCO, N.Y., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Pins and Needles, an authorized BERNINA Dealer, will host its "Sewcial Retreat" on April 25–26, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day at the MTK Hotel in Mount Kisco. The two-day event offers attendees the opportunity to step away from daily distractions and enjoy dedicated sewing time in a relaxed, community-focused environment.
Designed for sewists of all skill levels, the Sewcial Retreat encourages participants to bring their own projects while connecting with fellow makers. Attendees will have access to shared tools and equipment, including sergers, coverstitch machines, and pressing stations, allowing them to explore new techniques and enhance their sewing experience.
Throughout the weekend, guests can work on individual projects at their own pace—whether finishing works in progress or starting something new—while enjoying the camaraderie of a creative community. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks will be provided both days to support a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
"This has truly become one of our favorite events. There's something special about stepping away from the day-to-day and spending time sewing alongside others who share the same passion. It's a welcoming, inspiring environment where attendees can focus on their projects, connect with fellow makers, and leave feeling accomplished and re-energized," said Lisa Alfonzetti, Owner, Pins and Needles.
The Sewcial Retreat costs $295 per attendee. Space is limited, and advance registration is encouraged.
