Crikey! Looks like we’d have enough people to organise our own one at this rate…

I’ve never heard of them either. But I’m assuming they’re like creative writing retreats where you go away for a weekend to a quiet, peaceful place and craft happily with a bunch of other people.

No not yet!  Mum told me about a crafting hotel where they do crafts and golf so your OH could go golfing while you craft!
Have heard of crafting weekends and nearly signed up to one but wasn’t too well so didn’t!

They sound like fun!!! I guess if they do lots of different crafts it’d be a good way to learn some new crafts without splashing out loads of money!

No I’ve never been on one. But it sounds like pure bliss grin I did look into one a couple of years back but they were charging way over the odds.

Well, I’m based in Kent, so Ipswich is not a problem for me. But given enough notice, I’ll go anywhere if I can get a cheap train ticket!
