Tart Retreat in 2024

This post is solely about the retreat I am planning for May next year. It is only open to newsletter subscribers so if you are a blog subscriber only then pop over to the website home page and sign up for newsletters to be eligible.

I am repeating here the content sent as a recent newsletter, and there is a copy of the application form below (retreat-may-2024.docx) to download and complete, if you would like to participate.  It sets out the cost per attendee and the payment schedule. 

I may not be able to respond to individual enquiries between now and 20th September when applications close. I don't want it to be based on a 'first come first served' basis as not everyone has the access or inclination to be online every day. So all applications will be considered together, regardless of date received. 

If you are unable to save and complete the application form online, please print it off, fill it in and send me a photograph or scan of it. I cannot consider applications in any other style.

In the event that you need to cancel, fees will not be refundable unless I am able to find a suitable new participant to take your place.

OK, that's the serious stuff out of the way. I hope you love the idea of a few days' gentle stitching in lovely surroundings in early May and would like to join me at the farmhouse!

I’m sliding none too gracefully into hibernation mode.

Posts will be intermittent for a while but you won’t even notice I’m away, dozing quietly in a warm den with mulled wine on tap*

Good wishes to y’all x

Blues will out, though! 
Indigo block prints, deep dark Japanese print cottons, rich Ghanaian indigo batiks, soft linens, hand dyed threads… I love them all, and so do many of you🤗!
Lots to choose from in my not-just-blue store!😘

It’s not all blues and indigos at Tart HQ!

Kits and packs and colours to spark joy

A patchwork of pincushions, each hand stitched and set into a vintage egg cup! 
I so enjoyed making these and they are all listed in the shop now😘
I’m closing the doors and doing my last post office run of the year on Friday 13th😳
Orders received up to midnight on 12th will make the cut!
