Sew Sequim Resources

November 6, 2025 by David Owen Hastings


Sew Sequim is a quilting retreat that happened for the first time in Sequim WA in the summer of 2026! This is a private invitation-only quilting/sewing retreat. The dates for the first Sew Sequim were July 27 – 31, 2026, and it was completely full. Past retreat participants will be invited to return each year, and we already have a waitlist for any spaces that may open up.

I love living in sunny Sequim, WA! There’s a lot of natural beauty all around the Olympic Peninsula and there are so many great reasons to spend a weekend, a week, or more in our rain shadow. I’ve assembled a few handy resources and recommendations here, to help you plan a visit. Whether you are coming for our quilting retreat, or simply interested in visiting our area, Sequim is a sweet small town where it only takes 10 to 15 minutes to get anywhere. 

Resources for visiting Sequim WA

I have assembled a number of resources here, both for attendees of Sew Sequim but also for people who might like to visit sunny Sequim WA! I hope you enjoy using these resources to make your visit to our small town, and the Olympic Peninsula, a great one.
