I meant to also say that the footage at the end with both beautiful quilts blowing in the breeze…gorgeous countryside with sheep…& your lovely mushroom hanging was all just fabulous❣️👏
How lovely that you and your sister share the joy of sewing. Sadly my sister not only lives 1800 miles away from me, but absolutely hates the idea of sewing. She loves that I love sewing, but would rather take a sound beating at the thought of doing it herself. Anyway good for your two and I simple love seeing the items you share. Thank you so much.
Just come across your video Rachel. How lovely to have your own sewing retreat with your sister. The Cotswolds sounds so lovely it's making me think I'll have to arrange something with my own sister... You seem to have had good weather too! You've also made me want to make a whole cloth quilt. I'm from the North East and have always fancied making a Durham quilt of my own. One day perhaps 🤔 Lovely video....
I love all of your honesty in sharing how sometimes there are little issues that you have to work with. I recently made a baby quilt for my great grandson & used “minky fleece” for the backing. First time using it. It was so slippery & hard to get an even top stitch on it! But I think it turned out ok & that backing is so extra soft ☺️ Everyone at the shower & especially my granddaughter seemed to love it❤
This was fantastic!! So heavenly. It was wonderful to see you doing your hand binding seated in a comfy chair next to the open door with a nice breeze coming in and beautiful flowers to gaze upon. Be still my heart!!❤️ I truly loved all of the quilts that you and your sister worked on; they are all so beautiful even though each is quite different. Your cottage looked so beautiful; what a wonderful place to stay while getting the opportunity to do something you love. For me, it would be a dream come true. Thank you so much for sharing your time with your sister. I hope you can do it again soon. Happy quilting………………….
How wonderful you could each finish a quilt on your retreat! Love your house blocks. As always, enjoyed your video and your taking us along to see some of the sights with you. The place you stayed at reminds me (with the house layout, dark wood trim, and the pasture outside) of the movie The Holiday with Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, & Jude Law!
Wonderful video ❤️ 👍 A bit like a fairy tale Loved all aspects of it....sewing, cottage, surrounding scenery, and the beautiful music The passing cat, and the mushrooms quilt too.
I simply adore your quilt top of little houses and trees. The colors all play so nicely together. What a lovely vacation for the two of you. I live in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA...your surroundings are the fabric of my dreams. Rock houses are my absolute favorite with those exposed beams - just heavenly.
Your sister's quilt is gorgeous. Well done on the double gauze quilt binding. The finished photo shows how pretty it turned out. Wow love the mushroom piece. You've got a really good eye. What a productive few days you've both had. Well done. Xx
Really enjoyed watching your videos of your holiday in the Cotswolds with your sister … Fabulous place and wonderful memories for you both… your quilts and sewing are very Beautiful .. well done Girls 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰🤗😁🦋
Congratulations on finishing your quilts. Love the wide binding on the pink!! What a lovely holiday. And you were so productive too. Where are you taking us next time?
I am so envious of you quilt vacation. But I do live in rural Tennessee, so I have an accent as well! Lol Your work is so nice and a good variety and I so enjoy watching! Your eyes are so pretty, you should enhance them a bit for videos! Maybe? Thank you for sharing!
I just want to tell you I really enjoy your videos. They are very refreshing to listen to as you talk about your quilts. I’ve seen this one before that. I’m watching right now. And I watching it again because it’s just refreshing to listen to somebody who has such a great love of just the experience of making quilts. I’m sure you enjoy the finished product also. But you just have so much enthusiasm as you share your process of making it. I think you have as much joy in the process as you do in the completed project. And that’s the way it should be. I also quilt. I’m in no hurry. When I was young, like you, I enjoyed the process a lot. But I did a lot of it by machine, but overtime I have moved into my hand quilting, piecing things of that nature and I enjoy it just as much. I’m much slower with my sewing than I used to be, but my love for it is just as great if not greater than it was when I put out so much. So it’s very nice to find somebody very enthused with what they’re doing. I envision you just getting up in the morning and can hardly wait to get in there and attend to your first love of sewing. That’s what I do every morning 4 o’clock sometimes 3 o’clock I’m up sewing all day. I do take some time to do a lot of reading but I love my sewing. Thank you for sharing your passion for quilting.
What an absolute treat. It was just as if we had joined you for the holiday. The content was just right. Not too much chatter, and lots of views of your work. I am planning to go for a week with a friend to do the same. We’re booked a cottage in the Malverns forJuly.. We have a project of six small snow covered houses for a wall hanging which we plan to make together. Loved the shop visits. Thanks
What a lovely couple of videos.Gorgeous place to stay,and lovely scenery.You both achieved so much.Thank You for keeping me so entertained,loved everything you both sewed,thanks to your sister too.xxxxxxx
What a fabulous idea to have your own mini retreat. I don’t have anyone who would enjoy this kind of thing so might do a one on my own with my dog. All the work was Bea 😊
I’m brand new to your channel. I loved your video. Such a lovely way to spend time together. I wish my sister was interested in crafts. Your quilt is amazing. Well done on getting around the binding issue. And your sisters quilt is so lovely… very luxurious ❤
Welcome to the channel! it has taken around 4 years of hinting for my sister to get into crafts, lol! it was easy to get her to try hemming her own trousers and then it went from there xx
Sister’s quilt is lovely. You ladies have been very productive. Yes I would make thick binding on your double gauze quilt….don’t cut the quilting. We call the seam all around…”The Victory Lap”. I’ve truly enjoyed your retreat…that’s what quilters do…we share good times. Blessings, Dawn
I really like your little houses project! I like your solution for the binding of your pink quilt; well done! Your sister's quilt is stunning, but she needs to put a label on it!
I think is wonderful you and your sister spend sewing time together! My sister and I do the same thing a few times a yr.! Nothing better than quilting with your sister , we live in Massachusetts! Happy quilting!
Love all the quilts. The gauze one must be so soft. Interesting to see the different colour preferences. Like you two - my sister is the green lover & I am the pink lover !
How nice is that, quilting holidays with a sister. Your quilts turned out so pretty, you can be proud of your work and the nice time, you spent together.
Been just lovely watching you both sew & quilting . Also brought back memories of my trips with my darling Angel to the Cotswolds . So many places to visit too . Both if you Finnish your beautiful quilts & much more . Thankyou both . ❤
You and your sister have made beautiful quilts. It was so fun to watch your quilting and see the lovely cottage, just a dream. Thank-you from Rose in British Columbia, Canada
I had found another favorite person that I plan on following! You are so pleasant to watch and listen to. You also have inspired me to do a whole cloth hand quilted project using the gauze fabric. Absolutely love it and hope we will be able to see the finished quilt. Happy quilting❤
What a wonderful job you girls did and so fast!!! The pink flower dot fabric is perfect on the gauze quilt. I had never seen the wall hanging method of appliqué you did. So thanks for showing me. Such a relaxing video just loved it. Jean Colorado USA
You both do such lovely work and are a great inspiration to keep going when I get bogged down…really enjoyed your trip as I never get to travel…great respite.😊❤
I haven't seen your channel before and just wanted to say, love it, and, you're so clever well done from a fellow crafter, knit, quilt, curtains etc.😊😊
Wow! You both made excellent quilts! I didn’t think you would get so far and also have time for exploration. I absolutely love the little houses quilt. Thank you for sharing your retreat with us!
Your house/tree quilt is so lovely! I've never heard of paper piecing for houses and trees. Good idea. Love the pink gauze backing and quilting. You rock! Love ur sweet personality. Thanks for sharing! 👍😃
What a wonderful get away for sisters. Tell your sister to not be so shy! Her work is beautiful. Yours too of course.
Beautiful work ladies! Nothing like sewing with a buddy
I am loving your videos. Your sister’s quilt is beautiful. Thanks so much for the inspirations. I am starting to quilt again because of your videos.
That's wonderful 😃
I meant to also say that the footage at the end with both beautiful quilts blowing in the breeze…gorgeous countryside with sheep…& your lovely mushroom hanging was all just fabulous❣️👏
So inspiring what a wonderful time. Two beautiful quilts
Thank you for letting us accompany you on your sewcation. It was so relaxing and inspiring to watch. Hope to see more of you two ❤

Oh gosh. That India print fabric is gorgeous.
Fabulous. You both got so much done. Home for a rest and reflect 😊

Congratulations on finishing your quilts. Love the wide binding on the pink!! What a lovely holiday. And you were so productive too. Where are you taking us next time?
Kate at The Last Homely House has a great idea of doing a "facing" binding that would solve your issue ❤
Love the mushroom quilt
I am so envious of you quilt vacation. But I do live in rural Tennessee, so I have an accent as well! Lol

I think that's a great idea, it's just so refreshing to have a change of scenery and have time to do our hobbies
Gorgeous video Rachel!, love the idea of morning craft shopping too 😂
I'll come with you Jacqueline, we'll pile the dogs in a corner and sew them matching bandanas ❤
It looks like a wonderful retreat ❤

I think is wonderful you and your sister spend sewing time together! My sister and I do the same thing a few times a yr.! Nothing better than quilting with your sister , we live in Massachusetts! Happy quilting!
It's great you have your sister to sew with. My sister & I are also both quilters. Your sewing idea is a lovely idea. Enjoy Denise in australia

Beautiful Rachel, wonderful holiday..
If you use the “facing “ method of finishing a quilt , you could make it as large /wide as you need.
The two large quilts came out lovely 👍💗 And your little mushroom wall hanging gave me the giggles..so sweet 😊💞
