The Craft Sessions is a creative retreat in Australia's Yarra Valley featuring peace, friendship and knitting. Also embroidery, sewing, yoga and delicious food. Can you think of a nicer way to welcome in spring?

I am very excited to be teaching at this weekend in October. It will be my first visit to Melbourne/Victoria! I'm looking forward to meeting the women who have dreamed this retreat up and the people who join in. And the other teachers, too. You can read about them here. I'm imagining the weekend as a kind of little Antipodean Squam.

We're still putting the finishing touches on my classes. I do know one will involve sewing something. And the other will probably involve a whole day of walking, collecting, and free-form embroidering. I will keep you posted on the details. Other classes will include all kinds of knitting, garment sewing and block printing.

Do you want stay in the loop about this gorgeous weekend? You can join the mailing list and there's a facebook page.

    Oh my, you must have heard me squeal all the way over in NZ. And I live in the Yarra Valley – how fortunate! This sounds amazing, I have signed onto the mailing list, blocked out the weekend on the calendar and can.not.wait.
