2026/09/04: Deposit PAYMENT - Two Day Handsewing Retreat

Do you deserve some time for YOU? Time to sit & sew without any interruptions and surrounded by fellow EPP addicts & like-minded machine stitchers. The only interruptions are to take refreshment, a comfort break or go shopping for essential supplies for your hand sewing - what more could you ask for?

After the success of the 2025 retreat Alicia is back offering a Two-Day Retreat to start working on our new BOM which will be launched at the Festival of Quilts 2026, otherwise, why not come along with all your current hand or machine sewing projects and have some quality time to really get them moving along or completed. 

We will be providing refreshments & lunches, workshop tuition & guidance from Alicia - this is the perfect getaway for you or why not bring some quilting friends for a mini-break together? Please note in a change from previous retreats you will need to arrange and pay for your own overnight accommodation, evening meal & breakfast. We hope this will make the retreat more accessible to our ladies who live locally. 

The total cost of the retreat is £130.00 and to secure your place you will need to pay a deposit of £30.00* with the balance of £100.00 due to be paid by Friday 24th July 2026.

The cost includes the following:

• Two days tuition (10am till 4pm) at Bramble Patch
• Lunch on the Friday & Saturday

*Please note the deposit is non-refundable
