I am available to give talks and workshops to groups and guilds. I live in South Gloucestershire, but am willing to travel anywhere! Below is some more detailed information. Get in contact with me via the contact page to book/enquire and find out about prices.

Talk title: ‘An Obsession with Log Cabin’

Talks usually last around 1.5 hours but can be lengthened or shortened to fit your needs.

My talks are a visual tour through my work, including kniting, embroidery and patchwork through real life quilts and samples focusing on my Log Cabin series. No slides/projector are used.

I encourage questions and handling of samples and quilts and am more than happy for people to feel the work and take photos.

Workshops:

• Miniature Log Cabin. Create your very own mini quilt using a quick strip piecing method. These can be adapted into needle cases, bags and lots of other fun projects.

    

• Pineapple Log Cabin. Learn how to draft your own paper foundation, play around with design ideas and layouts, cut fabric effectively and learn Foundation Piecing by machine, to create your own beautiful Pineapple Log Cabin block.

    

• Fabric covered book making. Create your own personalised sketchbook covered in fabric complete with a hand stitched spine. Makes a fantastic present or special keepsake.

• Eco and rust dying workshop. Play around with rust dying using different mordants. Print using natural dyes and foraged materials to create a unique fabric piece.
