Coach Trip to Malvern Spring Quilt Show
Rectory Quilters are organising a coach to go to The 2026 Malvern Spring Quilt Show on Saturday May 16th at the 3 Counties Showground.
Collection will be at 8.00 from outside the New Milton Community Centre (plus a possible pick up in Highcliffe and Lymington) the journey should take 2hrs 40 minutes plus comfort stops where needed.
The coach will then leave the exhibition at 3.00pm to return.
The cost with South Coast Coaches is £20 each if all 37 seats are filled, and a little more if there are not so many people.
Entry to the exhibition is £11 (over 60’s £10) if bought in advance, or £13 if bought on the door. Advance tickets can be bought up to the week before. See the Malvern Spring Show details online. I have asked if we could have a group discount and I wait to hear, and can let everyone know.
It is hoped that this is something you might enjoy, so please invite your friends to come too. It should be a lovely day, and though it is a fair journey, how wonderful to be dropped at the door and returned back home. There is no loo on this coach but comfort stops are programmed into the journey.
Please let me know by email to joyelphinstone@hotmail or

if you are interested in going.
Payment will not be needed until 2 weeks before the trip, and payment via bank transfer is encouraged....We hope you are able to come and support us in the usual way.
Forthcoming Quilt Festival 2026
In the summer of 2023 the group put on a Quilt Festival in the church and hall where we meet. We filled the church with beautiful quilts, all made by group members. This included 3 judged categories plus a general category, enabling everyone to join in whatever their style or experience in quilting....A similar event is planned for 2026.
