Winter Indulge Retreat 2013

Hi everyone,

Winter is well and truly here in the southern hemisphere. Conjuring up images of cosy nights by the fire, cups of hot chocolate and of course – some sewing! Most of you will find you are eager to start a new sewing project or dust off your unfinished projects and feel that sense of satisfaction that only comes from creating something with your own hands.

In the spirit of Winter & Creating we are very excited to announce a special weekend we are holding to ward off those winter blues.
