Are you new to patchwork/quilting, or not very confident? This weekend is for you!
A very relaxed time to sew, there are no specific workshops, but I will be there to help as needed, and I'll have a variety of beginner friendly starter patterns for you to use.
There will be a pop-up shop if you don't have the things you need, and there is an option to borrow a sewing machine for the weekend.
Everyone is welcome at this weekend, you don't have to be a beginner, but I really want beginner quilters or sewists to be happy coming to the retreat.
