Well what a start to the year – according to the experts (and the Daily Mail!) we’ve been through the most depressing weekend BUT we’ve also been through Happy Monday. Apparently last Monday was the day on which we start thinking about our summer break. Well that includes me: two of us have booked to go to the Quilt Show in Alsace in September run by Arena Travel; details are on the Quilt Retreat page of the site https://www.justhands-on.tv/small-ads/category/3/
and I am already savouring the idea of sipping champagne at Kings Cross St.Pancreas prior to departure on the Eurostar!

  Val:  Creative Quilting have a wonderful club that you can join which will send you every two months a bundle of colour-co-ordinated fat 1/4ms so all you have to do is find a project for them!! Take a look at their website: www.creativequilting.co.uk

The Farncombe estate run a whole host of wonderful workshops and Jennie Rayment often teaches there;   For more details visit www.FarncombeEstate.co.uk

Val:    Jennie and I and the boys from Bizview will be working hard on getting new ideas onto fim for the new year which will include some of my favourite fast strip piecing ideas and Jennie is taking the fear out of free motion quilting;   Dawn Cameron-Dick will also be joining us to talk abour her new reference book and help us on what threads and needles to use and we are hoping that Gill Burbridge will be able to join us and show us some of her fantastic feltwear.

This weekend (Dec 3rd/4th)  the whole of the UK seems to be covered in white snow making it look like pictures from Christmas cards – however if you are having to deal with it, either by travelling or shovelling – we do hope you are managing to stay safe and warm. Stay indoors and enjoy Justhands-on.tv! With Christmas fast approaching we appreciate that time is of the essence but there is still time to be creative and we have a few quick-to-make workshops for you to enjoy as well as some super films.

Val:   No this isn't our age (!) but the boys at Bizview.tv have been keeping count and it would appear that we have now made together over 100 videos which we continue to share with you.   The Swindon Advertiser has more to say and you can read this at.www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/3143377/8458113

Val:  Getting away for a workshop is the best of two worlds - you get to sew and you get looked after.   Jennie has just finished one at Dunford House in Midhurst  but she has another booked at Farncombe Estate from 15-17th October;  Of course her workshop is full but check out some of the wide variety of courses that they offer.
