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.

********************************
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.
