SUMMARY:Mandy Shaw\, Jenny Jackson and Lisa Lam - The Sew much fun sewing retreat Buxted Park Hotel 5th-7th September 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Sew much fun Sewing retreat – 2026 with Mandy Shaw\, Jenny Jackson and Lisa Lam –  Buxted Park Hotel 5th-7th September 2026\n     \nWelcome to another Luxury Sewing Retreat 2026. We’re delighted to invite you to a truly special creative escape at the stunning Buxted Park Hotel\, set in the heart of the beautiful Sussex countryside. This luxurious two-day sewing retreat will take place from 5th–7th September 2026\, offering the perfect balance of creativity\, learning\, and relaxation in elegant surroundings. \nThere is an option to stay the night before to settle in before the retreat starts and relax (4th September) \nThis retreat is designed for sewists of all abilities\, from enthusiastic beginners to experienced makers looking to refine their skills and explore new techniques. Over the three days\, you’ll enjoy expert-led workshops\, personalised guidance\, and plenty of hands-on sewing time in a friendly\, supportive environment. \nOur full retreat packages contain everything you need — food\, materials\, accommodation\, and even use of a sewing machine if required. All you need to do is bring yourself\, relax\, learn\, and enjoy a luxury weekend full of fun\, friendship\, and expert guidance. \nWe also offer non-residential places for those who live locally or don’t require accommodation. This option allows you to fully participate in the workshops\, enjoy all the creative experiences\, and benefit from expert guidance\, while simply coming along each day. \nYou’re welcome to arrive on 4th September for an optional pre-retreat stay (£160)\, including breakfast — a chance to settle in\, unwind\, and ease into the experience at your own pace. \nWe are bringing you some of the sewing world’s most experienced and loved tutors\, each bringing their own specialist expertise and teaching style. \nFully accessible hotel — wheelchair friendly and suitable for disabled guests. \n\nYour Amazing Tutors  \nYour weekend will be guided by our exceptional tutors: \nMandy Shaw  \n \nMandy Shaw is one of Britain’s most talented and respected sewing and quilt designers with a worldwide reputation for her work. Passionate about sewing and quilting for as long as she can remember Mandy started her business\, Dandelion Designs\, in 2004 as a way of making a little money whilst brining up her young kids at home. Little did she know what it would grow into. \nAs well as being a prolific designer\, Mandy loves to teach and demonstrate and (when allowed) will regularly attend shows like Festival of Quilts in the UK and Quilt Market in the USA. She is the author of over 12 bestselling books including Stitch with Love\, Simply Redwork and The Christmas Table. In total her books have sold over 150\,000 copies worldwide and have been publishing in six different languages. \nA great collector of things\, Mandy draws inspiration from vintage books and paraphernalia. Her desire is for everything she designs to tell a story and be meaningful and over the years\, she has developed a unique folk art style all of her own and is drawn to a red and white colour palette for which she has become famous! \nMandy runs Dandelion Designs from the bottom of her garden in a wooden chalet built for her by her husband Phil specially to house her business and her workshop. \nWorkshop info \nMini roulade\nA wonderful small round case decorated with linen\, tapes and Redwork embroidery .\nThe roulade has wooden ends and a metal fastener and will be personal to our retreat.\nThe roulade can be used for storing needles and threads for travel\, mini projects or jewellery.\nThere will be secondary projects\, depending on time to go with the  roulade\, a scissor case and a dorset button.  Patterns will be provided for all projects.\n\nProject is suitable for all abilities who have a passion for making things .\nJenny Jackson  \n \nJenny Jackson is a textile designer and sewing educator with a passion for all things bright\, beautifully stitched and leopard print\, of course. \nShe specialises in English Paper Piecing (EPP)\, a calming hand-sewing technique\, and Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP)\, its more technical machine-sewn counterpart. Viewers may recognise Jenny from Sewing Street TV\, where she regularly demonstrates both techniques with plenty of laughter and the occasional live-TV stumble. \nJenny is the founder of The Stores Sewing Studio in West Sussex\, a light-filled studio running alongside her home. Here\, she teaches hands-on workshops and hosts guest designers from across the sewing community. Classes are known for their relaxed\, welcoming atmosphere and are always well stocked with creativity\, conversation\, coffee\, tea and cake. \nShe studied Fashion and Textile Design at the University of Brighton\, specialising in knitwear (four years of knitting well spent). After graduating\, Jenny became a mum and began sewing from home\, where she discovered English Paper Piecing. From there\, things quickly gathered momentum\, leading to pattern design\, television work\, and the publication of her book\, English Paper Piecing Workshop. \nWhen she’s not sewing\, Jenny can be found spending time with her son Dylan\, her crazy cockerpoo Dave\, and enthusiastically daydreaming about renovating her house. \nWorkshop info \nThis workshop is suitable for beginners as well as those who may have tried FPP before but found it challenging. Jenny is known for her clear\, step-by-step teaching style and will support you throughout the workshop\, ensuring you feel confident and relaxed as you learn. \nYou will cover the fundamentals of Foundation Paper Piecing\, including: \n\nUnderstanding FPP patterns and templates\nFabric placement and sewing order\nAccurate stitching and trimming techniques\nTips for avoiding common mistakes\n\nOnce you have completed your Foundation Paper Pieced block\, you will then turn it into a fun project to take home with you\, perfect as a reminder of your new skills and a great starting point for future FPP projects. \nBy the end of the workshop\, you will leave with a project\, a solid understanding of the technique\, and the confidence to continue Foundation Paper Piecing at home. \nLisa Lam  \n \nWith a measuring tape draped like a stripy boa and a cackle that be heard in the next county\, Lisa has spent over two decades perfecting the art of bag making and sharing her enthusiasm with the sewing community.   Known as the “Queen of Bagmaking\,” she has transformed bag making from a niche hobby into a mainstream sewing category—all while occasionally sewing her own sleeve to a tote bag (usually live on TV) \nAs a long-standing guest designer on Sewing Street TV\, Lisa is the undisputed master of “professionalism-meets-chaos”. While she possesses the technical wizardry to turn a scrap of fabric into desirable arm-candy\, she is just as likely to stitch a handle on backward or get herself into a muddle on live television ( ‘zip pull-gate’ will haunt her for the rest of her days) \nLisa’s credentials are as sturdy as a leather bag strap.  A stitcher since age 8\, a London College of Fashion graduate\, and author of two best-selling bag books (with a new title out in mid 2026)\, she has taught hundreds of thousands of makers how to conquer “zipper-phobia”.  Her bag designs are the ultimate “Goldilocks” of the sewing world: desirable enough to make your friends jealous\, yet achievable enough that you won’t throw your sewing machine out the window. \nShe currently lives in Brighton with her husband and daughter\, and a collection of D-rings that she’s pretty sure are breeding in the dark. \nWorkshop info \nThe Saddle Stitch Bag Workshop with Lisa Lam \nEver wonder how those high-end leather bags get that perfect\, signature stitch? \nJoin us for a hands-on\, fun workshop where you’ll craft your very own Professional Saddle Stitch Bag. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned saddle stitcher\, you’ll walk away with a new bag that doesn’t just look “homemade”—it looks like it belongs in a luxury bag boutique. By the time you have completed the class\, Lisa promises you’ll be saddle stitch addict\, or she will eat her bag! The class will feature a brand new bag design. \n————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————- \nIncluded in the Retreat – Residential Stay – £899 \n\nTwo days accomodation\nTwo days of expert-led sewing workshops\n2 night stay at the beautiful  luxury Buxted Park Hotel in the Sussex Countryside\n3 – A la Carte Dinner evenings in a private dining room\n2 course buffet lunch each day\nAll materials and sewing supplies included in the price (unless otherwise noted)\nInspiration packs\, guides\, patterns\, notions\, and fabric selections\nA friendly\, inclusive environment suitable for all levels\nUnlimited Refreshemnts all day including tea\, coffee\, soft drinks\, cakes and savouries\nFully accessible venue\n24 Hour access to Sewing Rooms\nPrice: £899\n\nIncluded in the Retreat – Non-Residential Stay £549 \n\nTwo days of expert-led sewing workshops\n2 course buffet lunch each day\nAll materials and sewing supplies included in the price (unless otherwise noted).\nInspiration packs\, guides\, patterns\, notions\, and fabric selections\nA friendly\, inclusive environment suitable for all levels\n24 Hour access to Sewing Rooms\nUnlimited Refreshments all day including tea\, coffee\, soft drinks\, cakes and savouries\nFully accessible venue\nPrice: £549\n\n————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————– \nWhat You’ll Love and Learn \nAcross the retreat\, you will develop skills in: \n\nUnderstanding FPP patterns and templates – JJ\nFabric placement and sewing order – JJ\nAccurate stitching and trimming techniques – JJ\nTips for avoiding common mistakes – JJ\nThe “Magic” of the Saddle Stitch: Learn the traditional hand-stitching technique used by top brands.
