Step into an unforgettable 3 day weekend of creativity, connection, and celebration at one of our highly anticipated Curated WOOLSTOCK Events! Designed especially for lovers of handwork and heartfelt creativity, this immersive three-day retreat is truly an experience you won’t want to miss.
Hosted in our beautiful new retreat space at Buttermilk Basin, WOOLSTOCK is more than just a retreat — it’s a one-of-a-kind creative getaway filled with inspiration, friendship, laughter, and the joy of making by hand. Surrounded by fellow stitching enthusiasts, you’ll spend your days creating beautiful projects, sharing ideas, learning new techniques, and soaking in the warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes Buttermilk Basin so special.
Whether you’re a longtime wool appliqué lover or simply looking to rekindle your creative spirit, WOOLSTOCK offers the perfect place to slow down, gather with like-minded makers, and immerse yourself in the art you love. From thoughtfully curated projects and special presentations to delicious meals, cozy moments, games, giveaways, and unforgettable memories — every detail is designed to make this a truly magical experience.
You’ll also have the opportunity to meet Stacy West’s family and the incredible team behind the scenes — the creative hearts and helping hands who bring the magic of Buttermilk Basin to life each day. From packing kits and cutting wool to creating displays, stitching samples, and welcoming guests with warmth, they are a special part of the WOOLSTOCK experience and can’t wait to share the weekend with you.
This is your invitation to escape the everyday, settle into a weekend of creativity and community, and experience the charm of stitching together in our brand-new retreat space. Come solo or gather your besties, your curiosity, and your love for needlework — and prepare for a weekend filled with inspiration, meaningful connections, and moments you’ll treasure long after the final stitch.
