This break provides an opportunity to create unique and beautiful quilts and learn a range of sewing techniques with expert tuition from our course leader.

Please note: There is a £12 per person per day tuition fee payable to the course leader.

Our Patchwork & Quilting holiday will appeal to both the seasoned and novice quilter.  From Willersley Castle Hotel, with views over the river Derwent, you can enjoy the comforts of this beautiful house while you receive expert tuition and guidance.

Join our expert tutor Jane Edwards, with a choice of projects for you to work on.  The structure of the workshops will be flexible, allowing you to work at your own pace and to achieve your own goals during the holiday.

Course tuition will run every day, unless otherwise stated from 9:30 to 12:30 each day, with scheduled lunch and morning coffee breaks. The afternoons are kept free for you to explore the local area or take the time to develop your own project.

‘What shall I bring?’ You will be required to bring your own general sewing kit (scissors, needles, pins, safety pins, cottons and rotary cutter) & sewing machine. We are always on hand to offer advice, if you are unsure, and recommend that beginners students telephone prior.
