At Sew This & That, we love nothing more than to be able to sew! Our retreats are designed to allow you to do just that with the only interuption being stopping to eat!!
There is nothing better than to have someone else look after everything – no stopping to cook or clean to take care of children or husbands, no stopping to do all those other chores that need to be done. We organise two retreats per year to two different locations and our weekends are all about sewing, we place no restriction on what genre of sewing – we have avid dressmakers, patchworkers and machine embroiders – all sharing ideas and collectively having a fun time.
The cost of your weekend is all inclusive of accommodation & food and includes the kits for any project we may run over the weekend. The projects are kept small and simple to ensure you are not taken away from your other projects and UFOs! They are also not compulsary and you can choose wether to participate and if not you still get to keep the goodies!
If you are interested in coming along please book early as most times the ladies that have been before book ahead early! If we are fully booked, you can always ask to go on the waiting list as every now and then we do have last minute cancellations.

This year in June (2011) we will be taking our retreat to a new venue. Visting the beautiful Ivory Palms Resort in Noosaville, we will be using their conference venue and taking advantage of their restaurant for our meals! We’ll also see our accommodation become fully self contained so those cold nights are a little easier to handle!

“Thanks for a fantastic weekend. I had a ball, and can’t wait for the next retreat.
The way you put the weekends together is such a credit to you, you must put in so much work doing all the preparation, and I am sure I am not alone in saying that we really appreciate it. The projects were great, that ruler has a lot of possibilities. And the bag was fun to do”
New from Loralie Designs is this fun new “Very Fairy” panel with 4 matching fabrics. Keep the panel as it is and quilt it for a quick wall hanging, or use it with its co-ordinates to piece together a bright looking, and easy to make quilt!
Would make a great COT QUILT!
Keep an eye out for the new Very Fairy Embroidery Designs coming soon…
