What is Jan T's Utopia?ulysses

 uto·pia, n., Utopia, imaginary and ideal country in Utopia
(1516) by Sir Thomas More, from Greek ou not, no + topos place

an imaginary and indefinitely remote place;
often capitalized : a place of ideal perfection especially in laws,
government, and social conditions;
an impractical scheme for social improvement

Imagine a place where quilters would have unlimited supplies of fabric, thread, sewing machines, ideas, coffee, food and no-one to say,

'Are you ever coming to bed, (make dinner), (talk to us)?'

That's what Jan T started when she opened her retreat centre at East Maitland in 2000.

It's gone now, but the philosophy is present here on the web.

And the butterfly?

For centuries, the butterfly has been the symbol for new life, and that's the reason for Jan T's using it as her icon for her new life, and the new look of her website.

Inside Jan T's Utopia you can find all sorts of resources, with more happening all the time.  Jan T is eager to have you visit and stay awhile. Her slogan has always been —

'You have to have fun, or you have to go home!'
