anicatt Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Good news - Linzi, Kay and I are organising a UK Quilting Retreat from 15 - 19th September 2014. It is being held near Grasmere in the Lake District, which is a really beautiful part of north west UK and an excellent part of any UK vacation .............. http://www.lakedistrictwalks.net/grasmere We will be staying at Rydal Hall, which is a fabulous old country house set in beautiful gardens. http://www.rydalhall.org/gallery/#1 You will check in from 4pm on Monday 15th, bring your own projects and stitch your heart out through to Friday lunchtime. All meals and accommodation are included, as well as a full program of longarm demo's and evening textile talks. Non-sewing partners are also welcome and can enjoy the gorgeous countryside nearby or just chill and relax in comfort at Rydal Hall. If you are interested - please contact Ani Catt on anicatt@yahoo.co.uk for more information and a booking form. If you are travelling from overseas we hope to have a limited number of UK domestic sewing machines available to make it easier for you! Thanks - I look forward to hearing from you - Ani www.anicatt.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamu Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Oh my goodness.... I would love to go to this. I am thinking it would be a huge cost factor for me though. Will give it some serious consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
