Chris is available for groups and guilds; her workshops are always fun and instructive, with each student taking home inspiration, worked pieces and a file containing all the notes and templates used.
The workshop titles are:
AFRICAN/ AMERICAN CONNECTION
Inspirational day looking at the development of this distinctive way of seeing pattern and colour. A quilt or wallhanging will be started using post and rail or courthouse steps as a technique and using newsprint as a design base. GEE’S BEND AN INSPIRATION
Bring all your fabric scraps that have no appeal, these we will pool and simple machine work will create a wonder. See Chris’s October article in Popular Patchwork, for the inspiration behind this workshop. You will never see patchwork the same again. FREE MACHINE QUILTING
Use your machine to create a story in quilting; no stop lines add all sorts of interest. COLOUR!
Use it or lose the ability! This workshop will see you make samples that illustrate that coming off the safe track can lead to some exciting new combinations. If you have ever felt that your work was getting a bit ‘samey’ this is for you. A LITTLE BIT CRAZY
Crazy patchwork with the machine, quick and great fun, add new embellishments and complete a cushion cover or centre of a quilt in the day. Try different fabrics and manipulations for a very crazy look! Any queries, or if you would like more details, contact Chris on 01269 832272 or email at
