Workshops

Following our wet start in January 2011 we rebuilt and had a productive year of workshops run by Jan and also the girls from Indigoe Niche, including the weekend workshop with Sylvia Pippen in Nov.

There were several other days of volunteers working to make quilts that have been distributed to flood affected families across the state from Coast to inland areas & they have been gratefully receieved - Thank you to all the help from those who contibuted in some way, including Queensland Quilters.

I have added new workshops to my list of those available and will be running these in both the Granvale and Yeerongpilly studios in 2012 - check details through the links above.

*** Tifaifai - My Style - includes piped and border bindings

*** Lattice Weave

*** Top End Stars

If there is a particular workshop you would like to attend, contact Jan to see if there will be one happening soon or if it is possible to schedule one for your group.

Peruse through the links on the right for workshops as short as 3 hours to as long as 2 days. For larger works Jan also runs some workshops in series with a range of class lengths and intervals.

Jan has been developing workshops since 1995 and many are designed to suit students just starting in patchwork and quilting. These include traditional patchwork and quilting techniques and the faster machine styles as well. Some classes are small projects designed to have almost completed in class time, whereas the larger projects concentrate on top construction only.

Added to the list are many classes for the more advanced workers, and a great number of classes are designed around specific techniques. Jan works in a broad range of areas including both hand work and machine and from how to plan a quilt through to the quilting and finishing techniques. For those who prefer to quilt smaller pieces Jan includes a class on different ways to join these pre- quilted pieces. A little something for everyone.

To find out more about specific workshops, or for details on current tutor rates, or to book a workshop, contact Jan.
