The Quilting

​​

  1. The taught project: Anne will be using some beautiful, contemporary foundation paper piecing patterns designed by Canadian designer, Cristina de Miranda of Ships and Violins.  Anne will teach you all the techniques to make just one, or a selection, of five different blocks.  And, you can choose your own colour scheme. These are very versatile, and can be made in a variety of sizes.  Suitable for beginners and above.

  2. Bring your UFO projects - either your own, or a paper pieced project that you have started in a previous class or retreat.  Get the help and motivation you need to get your project on track and finished.

​

Or ... a combination of the above!  Even if you are not a beginner, you are welcome to get the kit, and work on that and/or your own project.

Sew Peaceful Retreat Cancellation Policy

 

Before booking with Sew Peaceful Quilting, please read the cancellation policy carefully!

​

All deposits are due when invoiced after registration, and are non-refundable, except in exceptional circumstances, to cover administrative costs.

​

For instalment payments, if your full payment is not received within 4 weeks of the due date (see your individual retreat information for this date), or we have not been contacted by you to arrange payment, you will forfeit your deposit and your spot in the retreat will be opened to the public. (This will only happen after repeated efforts have been made to contact you for payment, by email first and then finally by phone).  All payments up to this date are also non-refundable. 

​

Any cancellations by you will forfeit all of the paid fees to date, unless other arrangements are personally made with Sew Peaceful Quilting.  However, we understand that sometimes illness and tragedy occur, which may make it impossible for you to attend the retreat. We understand that there are circumstances beyond your control, but it also leaves us with a spot that we are unable to fill. Under these circumstances and at the sole discretion of Sew Peaceful Quilting, you may receive a full or partial credit against a future retreat or workshop (NOT valid for fabric or patterns) organized specifically by Sew Peaceful Quilting, but you will forfeit your original deposit amount. Our ability to transfer you will be subject to availability and we will only transfer your retreat sign up once. 

​

For cancellations within 8 weeks of the workshop, no refunds are available unless you are able to find a replacement, but you will forfeit your original deposit to cover administrative costs.

​

For US Customers:  please note that all transactions will take place in Canadian dollars.  Currency exchange rates may change in the event that you cancel, and these are NOT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF Sew Peaceful Quilting.
