Our annual retreat and workshops will be held from Thursday, May 28 through Sunday, May 31, 2026. Once again, we will be at Mercy by the Sea Conference Center in Madison, CT. The retreat house is located on Long Island Sound and all rooms have a private bathroom.
Our teachers for this year will be:
Kim Davis who will be teaching Early Bobbin Lace
Holly Van Sciver will be offering all levels of Torchon, Bedfordshire, Bucks Point, Honiton, Russian, contemporary lace and more. Holly will also be our vendor.
Carolyn Wetzel will be teaching a beginner bobbin lace class for those who are new to lacemaking, or those who have been away from lacemaking for a while and need to go back to basics. This class will be subsidized by NELG.
Registration will open on February 1 and close on April 26. Paid registrations received by March 15 will receive up to $20 early bird discount on accommodations and workshop fees.
More detailed information will be available closer to registration opening.
Our commemorative bobbin this year is from Chris Parsons. Please note that to guarantee delivery for retreat, the deadline for ordering a commemorative bobbin is March 1. Late orders will be accepted, but these will be delivered after retreat.
