BOOKINGS NOW CLOSED - SORRY
Greenhills Annual Fibre Getaway 4pm Friday 9 November to 10am Monday 12 November 2018 |
Once again we are offering the extended weekend at our country getaway fibre retreat.
We look forward to welcoming back our many friends from past weekends and anyone who might be a first timer wanting to join us for a weekend of crafting, engagement and enjoyment.
Come and work on your projects, take a mini workshop, take a bushwalk or simply enjoy good company and friendship. Knit, spin, stitch, weave on your inkle or tapestry loom and share your interest with others.
What's on offer this year:
Fashion Parade
Our Saturday morning fashion parade of Items from Show and Tell is carried off with much pizzazz and good humour by the talented line up of our in-house models and parade MC!
The Great Sunday Raffle
Each year Greenhills’ participants donate an enticing range of items for the raffle. With your generosity, we look forward to more wonderful items, handcrafted or otherwise, to offer as prizes. Drawn on Sunday.
Show and Tell Display (special feature Mother and Daughter joint item)
Please bring items that you have created during the year and share the details with us. Adopted Mum/daughter teams are allowed – this is just a bit of fun, no judging involved – just admiration involved here. Of course single person items are still very welcome.
Workshops or group sharing
We will trial new options for some workshops and group sharing, possibly a 2 hr time frame on Saturday and/or Sunday afternoon, as well as our usual ad-hoc Mini-Workshops that run over the weekend.
If you have a suggestion for new options and/or are willing to lead a workshop or other activity, please include this in your booking information.
The Shop
And don’t forget the SHOP! CSW’s Shop will be full of tantalising, inspiring treats from overseas as well as Australia. Sneak preview of the shop's goodies here, these items can be ordered online.
Happy Hour before dinner each night
We provide wine, juice and nibbles for Happy Hour now on three nights before dinner.
Full Catering
All meals are included. We have a roster for table set up and clean up – NO WASHING UP – yes!
Accommodation
All accommodation is in bunk rooms with ensuite. Only lower bunks are used so most rooms are for 2 people. If you want to share with a friend(s) please make sure you tell us this on your booking form.
2 PERSON UNITS STILL AVAILABLE. SORRY ALL THE 3-PERSON UNITS ARE NOW FULLY BOOKED
Blankets and pillows are provided. You will need to bring a towel and your own bed linen including a pillowslip.
What else to bring:
Your spinning wheel, knitting, weaving (small projects only as space is very limited), tapestry, etc. and any other items such as books that you think will help you make the most of your weekend; show and tell item, if you have one, and a raffle donation is welcome.
