yes...I went to one a few weeks ago at an old historical house that holds events, there were 6 of us, did all the above mentioned, and, the house was haunted! Great fun! I think I slept 10 hrs the whole weekend! got 3 quilt tops completed, a little infant dress and headband and quilted one top. Was a blast! You should give it a try! You know how us quilters are, never meet a stranger! Right?
