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!

Sunday evening essentials - stitching and The Great Pottery Throwdown! 
I love to see what amazing pieces this happy group manage to create despite limited time and cameras watching their every move.

Succumbed

Not sorry 😁

This wonderful colourway is called Ore, by the talented Charlotte @nervusfibre.

These and other beauties of hers have arrived at @thewoollybrew and they cried out to me from Fiona’s recent post.

This skein is going to be a cowl. 

Probably…

Project Tins all back in stock, fabric pieces and little colour coded fabric bundles on the shelves today. 
But newsletter subscribers learned first so there may be gaps in stock already!

A little Sunday serenity featuring new vases - one a gorgeous gift from @beastie_assemblage and the other (with ‘stitch’ marks) a gorgeous gift from self, purchased at @haus_andco 🤗
Sorting and measuring and photographing today…

Soaking up the last of this festive break - reading the memoirs and admiring the hardiness of Debbie Zawinski aka @theferalspinner 🤗, and knitting a hat, and keeping close to the fire!

Space is at a premium at Tart HQ and I need to make room for my new kit and pack ideas. 
So if your choice of kit has had a dramatic price reduction now’s the time to snap it up!

Newsletter subscribers are always first to hear… just sayin’ 😘

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
