Ladies, as ever The Sewing Place, your wonderful forum, will be offering you tickets to

2020's
Festival Of Quilts ...

Hosted at the NEC in Birmingham,
slap bang next to the train station and held on the
Thursday 30th July  to Sunday 2nd of August this year.
 
Once again The Sewing Place is pleased to be able to offer you tickets
to the biggest Quilt Show in Europe
at the best possible price by purchasing through the Group Ticket option.

This is the most economical way to attend the show;
These prices are even better than the discount offered to competitors at the festival!!!!

You can go on whichever days you please and,
as long as we can sell 10 tickets,
tickets will cost .....

£13 per Adult ticket
£11.50 per Quilters Guild  Member
and £7 per Child (5 -18)

Please add £1.50 to your order to cover my P&P costs and Twisted Threads admin fee.

Twisted Threads have, along with changing the dates for the show, changed some of the T's & C's ...
I will now need payment for your tickets by July 25th,


I will be attending the show and
will greatly enjoy meeting you fabulous TSP peeps
on The Mezzanine between 12 and 1pm
on the opening day of the show,
after which I hope we can join in the fray downstairs
and present your gorgeous Project Linus Quilts
to them at their stand.

If you are interested in taking up this great offer, please pm Iminei ....
marking your pm, FOQ 2020 please.

Now confirmed .... Cancelled til 29th July to 1st August 2021


The Festival of Quilts Postponed to 2021

Dear iminei,

It is with great regret it has become clear that it is not going to be possible for us to host this year's Festival of Quilts (30 July – 2 Aug, NEC Birmingham) as a result of the ongoing situation with Covid-19.
 
The team and I have been working hard over the last two weeks to see if we could deliver the show at a later date this year.  Unfortunately, having liaised with the venue, exhibitors, artists, teachers and yourselves, our visitors, we have also now established that this is not going to be viable.

It is therefore with great sadness that we have taken the very difficult decision to postpone The Festival of Quilts 2020 to 29 July – 1 August 2021.

We are sincerely sorry that we have had to take this incredibly difficult course of action and thank you for your ongoing support.

If you have already booked an early bird ticket for 2020, See Tickets will be in touch shortly to offer you either a transfer to 2021 or a refund.

On a more positive note, we will soon be sharing news around our Festival of Quilts competition, which we are very hopeful we can still deliver in a new 'online' format for 2020.  Keep your eyes peeled, we will email details as soon as we can.

Thank you for bearing with us during this challenging time. We hope you and your loved ones are staying safe and well and we will be in touch soon.  More than anything though, we are looking forward to coming back together as soon as we can to celebrate our amazing community.

With best wishes,
Anna Baptiste

Event Director for The Festival of Quilts

Sorry Guys!

Will see you there in 2021
