Welcome
to Needle & Thread, a
quilt retreat with a difference

Quilt
to your heart’s content at our quilting workshops and retreats
in Aix en Issart, a small village at the centre of the wooded valleys
and trout streams of the ‘sept vallees’ area of northern
France.
It’s a pretty,
rural place but barely an hour’s drive from the terminals
at Calais and only 40 minutes from Boulogne. You won’t lose
valuable sewing time travelling!
Our programme ranges
from relaxed retreats that allow you to work on your unfinished
projects through to structured workshops with specialist teachers
passing on their skills.
The Needle &
Thread premises include two comfortable cottages and a converted
stable workshop, allowing quilters to work and relax together all
in one place.
