Travel
Since 2007 Tammy has been organizing Needlework trips.
These trips are planned with the needleworker in mind. Just to give you an idea of which trips have been made we added a short history below.
In recent years Tammy has been organizing trips to Norway for knitting and stitching. Tammy is responsible for the stitching part of the lessons and workshops. (Norwegian) knitting is taught by knitting legend Hadewych van der Werff (well known teacher at the Shetland wool week)

Tammy thankfully didn't have to plan these trips by herself, she was assisted by Erna Liedermooij.
The trips are planned with a clear vision. Needleworkers love traveling together but also love to pick up a needle and stitch while on the road.
The trip needn't be expensive and the places visited exciting for a needleworker.
Tammy and Erna have always tried to combine it all!
