Immersive 4 Day Stitching Retreat Joy

This Spring Stitching Retreat, tutored by Helen Campbell, will be held in beautiful Sheffield in Tasmania.

The main theme for the four days of stitching is wool applique including embellishment techniques.

If you’re after several days of focussed learning in a relaxed social setting, this is the event for you!

If you’re coming from interstate, why not stay a few extra days and experience our wonderful part of the world.

With years of teaching experience, Helen Campbell has guided stitchers and quilters of all skill levels through Sue Spargo projects helping them build confidence in embroidery, applique, texture and colour.

Be Part of This Stitching Retreat

We welcome participants from confident beginners through to advanced stitchers.

Having experienced one of Helen’s retreats myself I can recommend her as a great teacher.

It is truly an indulgence to stitch with like minded souls and feel that camaraderie that only those with a needle in their hand know.

This very reasonably priced retreat is only $340 for 4 days tuition. There is a $100 deposit to secure your place.
