Please note that we are in the process of moving house – more info to come over the next few weeks, but follow mw on Instagram for the latest updates!
We will still be based in the Lake Trasimeno area of Umbria, Italy, which is right on the border with Tuscany and we’ll still look out onto Tuscany and Umbria.
You can either:
(1) book to come on your own, or
(2) book with a friend/s who also wants to spend time in the studio, or
(3) travel with a non-sewing friend/partner.
If you book to come on your own, I will advertise the dates you’ve chosen to see if someone else wants to come along at the same time, but can’t guarantee someone will. Or, you can request to be here on your own and I won’t advertise those dates* – it’s up to you. In 2023 I had 3 holidays where people spent the week here on their own, and they loved it, so if you fancy that option do get in touch. I also ran holidays with 2/3 sewing friends travelling together plus one with a couple where one person sewed, the other just relaxed; it’s really up to you, and what you enjoy!
Who comes on a Textile Holiday? Experienced sewists who have been passionate about Textiles for many decades, and also complete beginners, wanting to learn new skills from scratch… What they’ve all had in common is the desire to forget about “normal life”, to escape to the peace of the countryside, to spend time being creative, to relax in lovely surroundings and to visit interesting Italian towns and cities.
With a creative activity holiday you don’t just leave feeling refreshed and with happy memories, but also with new skills and ideas to take back and build on in future projects.
