Registration and Scholarships and a Podcast

April 22, 2016 thecraftsessions

Thank you thank you for all your wonderful comments about the Workshop List for our 2016 retreat. I'm so glad so many of you are thinking of coming. This year is going to be our best yet. A weekend of great women and great craft.

Registration Info

So the super important info is that registration opens on Sunday 24th April at 5pm. Two days! For those of you that are new to the event then please be aware that last year we sold out in a couple of hours so you will need to be a little bit speedy.

All the details are on the registration page. But two things that you need to make sure to read before you purchase are;

  1. How the workshops are assigned. After registration we will send you a link to the preference form where we collect all your details - including your top three workshop preferences and any dietary restrictions.
  2. Our cancellation policy.

 

Scholarship for 2016

Thanks so much for your applications so far. And if you haven't applied yet then you have until Saturday 23rd at midnight to get your applications in. You can find all the details here.

After applications close our selection panel are going to make a decision next week and you will be notified by Monday 2nd May.

 

A super fun Podcast!!

I was thrilled to be able to chat to the lovely Elizabeth of Squam fame in her fabulous Morning on the Dock podcast. You can find the podcast of our chat here.

Elizabeth's written intro did make me laugh. She talks about some of my quirks (really just run-of-the-mill face shyness!) but really for you lot Instagram's just about the clothes. Am I right or am I right?

The gorgeous retreat Elizabeth created, Squam, was part of the inspiration behind The Craft Sessions' existence. I had such a good time having a chitchat to her about all things craft and life in general. She is one of those people who you could chat to for days; she is a total joy. And if you haven't listened yet to Mornings on the Dock then go have a look - her lineup of guests is inspiring!

A gift!

I asked what your favourite class was out of our workshop list and promised to put something in the post for someone who commented. The gift is going out to @iwishihadchocolate on instagram. So great to get everyone's feedback.

I'll be back next week with normal blogging! And I can't wait. I have so many things to tell you. About flipping hems and a new favourite dress and the great starting and finishing divide. I get a little twitchy when I haven't had the time to get my thoughts on the page. I hope to see you here then.
