Our first guests stayed at Sewjourn on the weekend and from all accounts had a great time…….they say they will be coming back so I guess that says something!
The week leading up to the big ‘first’ was pretty crazy – in fact these photos are from 1am the night before……
But by the time the lovely ladies arrived everything was looking great – thanks to some help from Cassie on Friday morning!
We all had a very relaxing weekend – the first one for the year that all 5 of us were home all weekend – and we feel much better for it! So apologies for no posts for a couple of days but it’s been just time to draw breath. The much promised ‘before and after photos’ will be posted over the next few days so please keep looking and let me know what you think. (Still have technical problems with the photos from our girls’ weekend so have to get that sorted before I can post them – but trust that we relaxed, we created and we enjoyed…lots.)

Hi there,
I’m just one of the “First Guest” ladies who enjoyed a wonderful few days at Sewjourn last weekend. There were 7 of us in the end and we all enjoyed our stay. Sewjourn is just a wonderful concept which has been put together perfectly……the Cottage is cosy and country but has all the mod cons to make life easy and boy the Studio is just perfect. ….we all were very jealous and wished we had one in our own back yard!! To be able to leave our “mess” behind and ajourn to the cottage was great.
With the music to get us going and our creative juices flowing we all got stuck into the many task needing completion that filled our baskets. Our first time quilter started and finished(!) a quilt for her mother’s birthday ( Well done Maria,!) ,a sock monkey was made (Well done, Lizzie),
and Dyanne’s cushions looked great! As I said “We’ll be back”…I can’t wait!! Lynn
