The Border Tart’s Retreat in March 2025

This post is solely about the retreat I am planning for March next year. It is now open to all and there is a copy of the application form below to download and complete, if you would like to participate. It sets out the cost per attendee and the payment schedule. 

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 March and would like to join me in encouraging the arrival of Spring at the farmhouse!

🧵Thanks for the lovely sales of my wee kits-in-tins this last week or so. New stock in production today of Indigo Patchwork and Indigo Garden tins.

Does anyone dye yarn with all the rich dark nuances of black cherries? 
I think that would be perfection.

Admittedly tomorrow I may feel the same way about wild strawberries, or starling plumage. Today, though, is a cherry day

Stitching at the kitchen table tonight. 
Small project, wonky stitches, no rules.
Finally finished the simplest shawl(ette) and it’s off for a wee bath. May show it off when it’s blocked🤗
Just before the heavens opened on us. 
Again!
Morning walks with Bruce🐾
🤗🧵❤️
New bundles in the shop! 
Lots of blues, lots of birds - bit of a theme…
Each bundle is a one-off mix of fabrics, threads and finished items - often sample pieces I’ve made - and always a little extra tucked in the box too😘
🌿
Wednesday windowsill - garden gleanings and my own wee stash of hand dyed threads from favourite dyers🧵🤗🧵

A coffee break with slow knitting. 
My new mug from recent travels perfectly captures west coast beach colours on a sunny day🤗
