With overseas travel expected to be possible from mid December we are excited to announce specialised quilt tours in 2022 and 2023 led by Chris Lean and Jann Baker.
Our customised tours include places of interest for quilters and, as many quilters are avid gardeners, we will also visit a selection of wonderful gardens.
The US Tour in June/July 2022 incorporates the Vermont Quilt Festival and Shelburne Museum, a dinner at a private home in Vermont and a 1 day workshop with kit included, as well as time to explore Boston and Lancaster PA and enjoy 4th July celebrations in New York.
The UK Tour in August 2022 will coincide with the Festival of Quilts, Birmingham and the French Tour in April 2023 will visit Pour l’Amour du Fil in Nantes.
These tours will be for a maximum of 15 participants and will be fully guided.
