And it occured to me. We need SEWING CAMP A conference? An event of Does such a thing exist?

Organize your own.
A local hotel. The lower in stars they rate the more desperate they're likely to be. Slower season would also help. Many have smaller ajoining rooms for conferences. Electric usually not a problem.

Girl Scout camp. Yes, they have cabins available.
Some smaller ones, usually intended only for day camping are close to cities. For the purpose of having to rent a room if they won't let you sleep there. Local eateries could also cater.
Mosey Wood in PA has an 'Arts and Crafts' building. There is a large dining complex that could not only have the sewing area in it but also space for dining and could have the sleeping area at the other end. You wouldn't even have to use latrines. There are actual flush toilets in the building. How do I know this? I worked there as a kitchen aide one summer. Great experience! This would work just before or after the regular camping season.

Boy Scouts? They tend to be a bit more reclusive.

A college might like to rent out some facilities during the summer. I read an article a few years ago about colleges renting out dorm rooms for travellers trying to do vacation on the cheap side.

Some ideas,

hi AK!
I think I just might. Alaska has a long and dark winter with cheap hotel rates.
