HI Cuties,Just thought I would tell you about my week away we stay in 4 star hotel for 5 days twice a year, we have a large room we set our machines up in, and sew to our hearts content from morning till night there is anywhere between 20/30 of us,its a great week been going for many years, so hope my health holds out for April I do really enjoy been with like minded people...thank you for reading about my little trip.Bernadette

Hi Cuties,We do a few projects together but do our own things also, no pressure at all... we started out with machine knitting some still knit It takes place in Blackpool,U.K. The price is about £130 for half board I think it's a bargain and look forward to it .....Bernadette

Its years since I visited Blackpool, my grandparents lived nearby and I still have memories of taking my Granny shopping there and going on an escalator with her. With her bifocals she could not judge correctly where to put her feet and kept getting them in the wrong place. Then she would topple forwards or backwards with me behind pushing or grabbing her into place. Oh how my mum laughed when I told her what had happened. Enjoy yourselves. What do you hope to sew

That's so funny,I think I need to finish some half done projects,
I have till the end of the month to decide..

We used to visit Blackpool for the illuminations when I was nearly a teenager. Now we prefer the calmer atmosphere in Fleetwood, up the coast for the Folk Festival.
How on earth do you decide what to take with you?

by berny 03 Mar 2014

We go to Fleetwood Market, not very calm,just what you would take to a workshop and anything I see on the way out, just in case I need it.You can get most things that you might run out off local.
and all the ladies will help or share if need be
The laughs are free and there is lots of that..

please post some pictures, so we can feel even more envious

How fun to have such a wonderful group of friends to gather with, You are truly blessed! I hope your health is good for many more gatherings to come!

It sounds interesting, I bet you get lots done and learn a lot too!

Can I join you?

Now we need to know whereabouts/country/state is this held? What projects do you work on? This does sound interesting.Other than your hotel room is there any other charge? Sounds like a great vacation/get-a-way.

Sounds like a great time.
