2026
It's another big exciting year - Teaching in Switzerland, travelling to Portugal, textile tour in Morocco, road trips and flying trips around Australia, very excited to be teaching at New Zealand Quilt Symposium, and then a big visit to South Korea for lots of crafty fun.
I'm already planning for 2027.. with trips to Sri Lanka and the Maldives and other places too.
ZOOM WORKSHOPS & LECTURES
Online workshops with me,
hosted by Red Thread Studio Online
Jen from Red Thread Studio and I are planning to have regular Zoom workshops every few months. Follow our newsletters to keep up with what's happening. Or let me know if there is one of my projects you'd like to learn.
Our first workshop for 2026 is:
5th Feb - Groove Is In The Heart -
1-5pm ET( Florida, US)
5-9am AEDT ( Sydney, Melbourne, Australia)
Hearts are so perfect for the Valentine's month. In the workshop I'll go beyond the techniques in the pattern and share different ways to sew the heart blocks so you'll try a variety of techniques and pick your favourite way to sew the quilt.
PS. Jen also stocks all of my patterns ( She'll be getting a new delivery in early 2026) so if you are in the US, she's your go to for my printed patterns.
