June 2027 Stitching in the Maldives!!
I'm teaming up with Nicole from Red Door Tours for a dream escape to the breathtaking Maldives in 2027!!
Imagine eight days in paradise — turquoise waters, gentle island breezes, rich culture, beautiful food, time to truly relax… and of course, a little stitching in the sunshine. No wonder the Maldives are often at the top of lists for World's Best Holiday Destination.
Highlights of the trip
• Stay on a local island in the Maldives
• Visit local communities and learn about the culture
• Meet like-minded creative travellers
• Enjoy delicious meals
• Organic stitching classes with Rachael Daisy, including a new release project (kit included)
• Meet local ladies and learn about traditional crafts from the Maldives
• Participate in a workshop of local weaving
• Swim, snorkle and enjoy the gorgeous surrounds
• Participate in as much or as little as you wish
• Relax, rest and recharge in tropical paradise, ahhh so lovely…
