Looking Forward to 2025 at Primitive Gatherings and The Gathering!

Hey everyone, T.G.I.F! It’s been a long week of stitching, planning, planning, and stitching some more here at Primitive Gatherings. Jess and I spent a considerable amount of time bellied up to the brainstorming table together, attempting to smooth out the remainder of the kinks in our “tentative” 2025 events schedule, which – fingers crossed – I think we pretty much accomplished. It feels great to be done! I’m also super excited to share it with you, so without further ado, let’s kick off the weekend with a “TENTATIVE” sneak peak at next year’s events list!

I’m sure you noticed that I put the word “tentative” not only in quotes AND in big bold letters, but also bright red. That’s because I want to emphasize that the list I’m about to give you is just that – TENTATIVE! As I’m sure you can imagine, there’s quite a bit of organizing, compromising, rearranging, and other shenanigans involved in planning an entire year’s worth of activities at a busy retreat center like The Gathering. That being said, we may need to tweak it a time or two more before I can deem it, “official” but we’re darn close. Take a look! Want to print it? Click on it to download a printable PDF!

As you can see, we still have a lot of work to do figuring out exact details like check-in/out times, class fees, supply lists, etc., and I promise you, we ARE working on it! You can be one of the first to know when event details are complete by regularly visiting our interactive events calendar at http://www.lisabongean.com under the “Events Calendar” tab, or by clicking HERE!

See anything that interests you? If you have any questions on any of the upcoming events that you see here, please give The Gathering a call at 920-778-8031, or email thegathering@primitivegatherings.us for more information!

I hope you have a very relaxing, fun, and SAFE Labor Day weekend! Are you doing anything fun? I’m pretty much happy to lay low and local for the next few days hanging out at Anchor Point with my grand boys. If I do get the itch to get social, there are plenty of farmers markets, festivals, live music, and other events going on to scratch it with if I need to. This area is always good for that! Before I run off, let me say thank you and congratulations to Karen M., Jill S., and Victoria Z.! They’ll be getting a prize for their comments on the blog last week (check your email if you think this is you). Woo hoo! Three lucky winners in honor of the holiday weekend – one for RED, one for WHITE, and one for BLUE!!! See you soon! ~Lisa

    My Hubs wants to spend the weekend doing home repairs! It has been so hot all summer long here in Oklahoma that a stretch of temps in the low 90’s seems like a cold spell! Have a great weekend everyone!

    Hi Lisa…Next year’s calendar looks busy, as they do each year. I spent almost 2 hours at PG today and it was more than I imagined. We are on a cross country road trip from Oregon and PG was my only “must stop” as we planned our trip. You are truly blessed to share your love of quilting with such a lovely venue. Happy Labor Day!

    I love the idea that you offer a pre-class fitting of the coat. That is beyond great customer service. Looks like 2025 is going to be a great year at PG.

    I am excited about the Unity project that is coming up this winter! I live in Iowa, and it’s good to have something to look forward to for that stretch of winter that seems to drag on forever after the holidays. ❤

    Amazing events to look forward to! And so many to choose from as well as all other classes and sewing gatherings you offer! Can’t say enough good things about the wonderful things you do for us, your designs, store and staff! Are all exceptional! Also the Bernina bunch are amazing, great service and very knowledgeable! Have had 4 quilts quilted, one machine repaired. Your staff are the very best at what they do! Happy Labor Day weekend!

    As a program coordinator for my guild I TOTALLY get the “tentative.” As I say “best laid plans of mice and men.” 🍻Here’s to few kinks in the road.
