If I did a small, intimate workshop from my house (near Wakefield, West Yorks) for a few people for something like a dresden plate pillow, or maybe english paper pieced hexagons, or the tumbler pillow I made recently, would anyone be interested?
Thinking out loud, there'd be tea on tap, lunch, probably cake, definitely biscuits, and all the bits and bobs you'd need to make a pretty, scrappy pillow in a day. Plus me to witter on at you, my 2 fat cats and my somewhat crazy puppy.
It's just a thought, but it might be fun?

yes! I will never learn to quilt without someone standing over me. Plus if I get to play with the puppy then I will be happy. :o)
I would SO be interested, I'm just a bit too far away. :) Your tumbler pillow is fantastic, by the way.
They are so wonderful! That would be fabulous if I lived closer.
I would definitely be interested (actually would be delighted!), it's just that there's a bit of water between our houses which makes it hard for me to attend! :(
Ohhh I wish I lived near Wakefield too :(
That sounds like a lovely afternoon, especially the fat cats,puppy, cake and biscuits. Oh yeah, and the sewing!
Would you take folks from across the pond? hee hee....nothing would be more fun!
I would dearly love to come round. I don't think Phoebe would be invited as she likes to scare cats. It is a very long journey for me though so I'd need an overnight stay or two....
Wakefield is not over the water but way up North for me for an afternoon visit - would like to though as i'm sure it would be fun...
I would love to but Wakefield is a bit far up north for a London girl for an afternoon....what a bummer.
Yes. Yes. And....yes! As long as it was on a day I'm not already busy then I'm in. Sign me up!
Me! Me! Me!
Oh I'd love that so much! Too far away for me though :-(
Sounds like great fun, shame it's too far for me!
sounds wonderful! Quiet a way to travel form London, but if there was a good b & b locally..
It's a bit of a hike from Philadelphia, so I must send regrets. But it's a stellar idea.
Please move nearer - or do a travelling workshop!!
does the workshop fee include a flight from Australia?
Really wishing I lived in England right about now...
I'm interested :-) possibly :-)
I'm in south west scotland so it would require an overnight but definatly do-able
Definitely interested - I'm only on the County Durham/North Yorkshire border so only an 90 minute or so drive.
Would have really loved to but I think Wakefield is a bit too far to come for an afternoon. Sorry
I'd have to make sure my passport is up to date...maybe you could just come to my house?
All that and a puppy, too? I would be beside myself with joy. Too bad I'm on the wrong continent. I'm so jealous of the lucky people who wold get to go.
It would be such a lovely, fun, summery thing to do!! Oh how I wish I lived near you...
[squeal] Google says we're only 14 miles and 30 minutes apart! Provided I'm not on a shift that day I'd love to join in ... have never done a dresden plate like yours :)
i'm in devon; but it sounds fab!
I'm in Suffolk, too far which is such a shame as it sounds like loads of fun
If you start in September I'll be in the UK:
week 1 in North Yorkshire
week 2 in the Lakedistrict (in a Yurt!)
I'd go out of my way to - well I'd come over from Manchester!
Melbourne is not to far to commute is it? I'm SURE I could make it. What's for lunch?
xx
Oh man, I wish. That sounds like a ridiculous amount of fun.
That sounds like fun if only I wasn't so far away. Perhaps you could come over here and do one!
come back and LIVE IN SUFFOLK, i demand it of you. *stamps feet*
would love to.....would make it an overstay in a b&b somewhere...
That sounds like lots of fun. I love cats! Oh, am I supposed to sew as well as stroke the cats? Lovely...my two favourite pass-times.
I'd come from Bingley x
3 weeks too late :(
I was in Cumbria & would have swapped Beatrix Potter for tea with Katy no risk !
I'm getting on a plane now...see you in 10 hrs. Hehe. If that dresden pillow were any cuter it might lick my cheek.
I would love to, but it's just a little too far from me (tea, cake, quilting and puppy - almost impossible to resist!).
how about a dresden-plate-cushion sew along instead? x
I'm a definate - after we relocate to Beverley!
yes, but you'd have to pay my airfare. Is that okay? And share your aurafil.
if you come to idaho i will make you potato everything!
Ooo. I would LOVE to come hear you witter on at me.
