GROUP 1 PROJECTS GB1 Celtic Style Knot Design for Quilts Vintage Flowers in Bloom GROUP 2 PROJECTS (CHOOSE ONE) GROUP 1 PROJECTS CL1 Christine Lethlean I have been quilting and quilt making for almost twenty years and have been sharing with students my love of hand quilting and needleturn appliqué for more than ten years. During class my emphasis is always on the building of skills and techniques in a relaxed and happy environment. I have judged in state exhibitions and taught in country Victoria and interstate for various guilds, groups and businesses. I have received a number of awards for my quilts over the past 8 years, including the Narelle Grieve Award for Excellence in Hand Quilting (2013 and 2010) as well as Excellence in Hand Quilting on a number of occasions for the Melbourne and/or Adelaide Quilt Shows (2013, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007) and Best of Show Adelaide (2010). I taught on the 2013 Needlework Cruise. Jane has been teaching patchwork and quilting for over eighteen years. Her passion for Japanese Textiles commenced over 22 years ago. Her business, BeBe Bold, commenced eight years ago, as a natural progression from her teaching and enables her to showcase the beauty, quality and craftsmanship of both traditional and contemporary Japanese textiles. She has a passion for using Japanese fabrics in many different ways – from quilts to bags, clothing to table runners and cushions. Jane teaches in Australia and the UK, has had a number of projects published in Down Under Quilts magazine and makes frequent trips to Japan to source new and interesting fabrics and products. Jane taught on the 2014 Needlework Cruise to New Zealand. www.bebebold.com JMac1 Sashiko Panel Arabesque This intricate design using batik on silk is stitched in hand needleturn applique and is based on Julie’s full size quilt of the same name. Julie’s stitch work is exquisite and it’s no surprise her quilts have received awards at the Melbourne and Adelaide Quilt Shows. Size: 50cm x 50cm. Sashiko, literally meaning “little stabs”, is a form of decorative reinforcement stitching (or functional embroidery) from Japan. Traditionally used to reinforce points of wear, or to repair worn places or tears with patches, this running stitch technique is often used for purely decorative purposes in quilting and embroidery. The white cotton thread on the traditional indigo blue cloth gives Sashiko its distinctive appearance. Sometimes red thread is used or coloured threads on off white fabric. Two designs. Colours: red, navy blue, black, putty (green) or white fabric. Size: 138cm x 88cm. SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate to advanced.

(CHOOSE ANY TWO) French Market Medallion Quilt (CHOOSE ONE) My earliest memories are connected with fabric and pattern. I have distinct memories of things I made and wore, fabric type, pattern etc. When my children were very young I stumbled upon patchwork and quilting – it was a pivotal moment. I have been teaching patchwork and quilting for 15 years around Melbourne and interstate. I am, primarily, a hand piecer and hand quilter however I will happily rotary cut and machine piece a quilt for a pattern or workshop. I design and sell my patterns in Australia and overseas. I like to impart as much knowledge as I can to my students and inspire and enable them to go on and create their own versions of my quilts and indeed their own designs. www.averyfinehouse09.blogspot.com.au GROUP 1 PROJECTS Katrina Hadjimichael GROUP 2 PROJECTS (CHOOSE ONE) GROUP 1 PROJECTS JN1 Judy Newman At a very young age I was introduced to sewing after being given a hand crank machine to play with. My mother, a seamstress, discouraged my desire to draw pictures with my machine, insisting that machines were for making clothes. Although I went on to design and manufacture clothing, I’ve always wanted to draw with my machine. I have specialized in portraying nature scenes with an emphasis on foliage, fur, feathers and fins! I use free motion techniques such as thread painting, collage appliqué, and photographic fabric in my work. All my embroidery is free motion (hand guided). I have demonstrated and taught workshops since 2006 onwards and I teach regularly in Launceston. www.mareecaplin.wix.com/textile-art MC1 Australian Gum Flower and Leaves This tiny bird, no bigger than a sparrow, is full of colour.

Then free motion quilting will complete the quilt. Size: 40cm x 40cm. This is a beautiful project featuring the iconic gum flower, gum nut and leaf skeletons. Each strand of the eight strand twisted cord will conclude in a realist leaf, nut or flower using free motion sewing and thread painting.

Since then I have made more than 500 quilts, collected far more fabric than any one person has a chance of using in a lifetime, made some enduring friendships, extended my limits and become totally besotted with all aspects of patchwork and quilting. I have been teaching my favoured scrap quilts for 24 years and continue to develop classes on the scrappy theme. With my help you can put a new spin on a very traditional quilt, a modern quilt or a special art piece using scraps. I have taught extensively in New Zealand at national symposia, weekend residentials and at clubs. My quilts have been juried into 9 national symposia, 7 national association exhibitions and biennial challenges. Several of my quilts are now in overseas collections. www.nataliemurdoch.co.nz The pleasure of teaching is what inspires most of the quilts I make today, as well as my love for design. My quilts are primarily hand appliqué using a freezer paper method and quick and easy, machine appliquéd, pieced and quilted. Quilt and Appliqué as you Sew projects are another joy. I teach regular classes on the NSW central coast, in other Australian states, on Norfolk Island and in New Zealand. I am an accredited teacher with the NSW Quilters Guild. Many of my quilts have been published in Australian magazines with two appearing on the front covers. Some of my larger queen sized, hand appliquéd quilts have won prizes at the NSW Quilt Exhibition and the Victorian Quilt Showcase. www.pamfurnissquilts.com PF1 In this can-do class you will master techniques that will give you a confident start on your art quilt adventure: accurate piecing both straight and curved; fabric manipulation; regular, reversed and soft-edged appliqué; free-motion quilting and embroidery and layering both fabric and colour all to achieve the results you have been striving for. And then there is the quilting that adds flair and colour - it is not just a way to finish off. Students will complete a small wall-hanging that will encapsulate many skills. It will be a sample to refer to as you develop your own style for art or contemporary quilting. Size: 60cm x 42cm. Circles in Motion This is a great machine skills class from Pam.

(CHOOSE ANY TWO) PF2a GROUP 2 PROJECTS (CHOOSE ANY TWO) GROUP 2 PROJECTS NM2a Ooey Gooey Hearts I have been a lifetime sewer having taught full time with NSW TAFE for ten years and hold a Diploma of Teaching in Fashion. While there, I evolved into a specialist creative needlecraft teacher. During the past four years I have been developing my skills as a Modern Quilter and in that time have created more than twentyfour quilts, all of which I have designed myself. Recently I have stitched a number of quilted bags, placemats, children’s clothing and other items for sale at local craft stalls and the Port Stephens Community Art Centre. Heavily inspired by my surroundings, the camera is always on the ready and the design books are filling faster than I can make the quilts. I have the optimism and desire to motivate others to see the beauty and fulfilment in creating "one off" textile pieces for the enjoyment of their family and friends. WN1 What’s All the Fuss? You’ll have fun exploring the art of fussy cutting to create a wide range of hexagon blocks. Using varied techniques, including the use of mirrors, you’ll identify suitable elements in fabric designs to create kaleidoscopic effects in the blocks. The hexagons can be pieced together to complete a quilt top. Alternatively they can be framed or used to create a cushion cover or bag. Size: Finished is 60” x 65” (152cm x 165cm) and can be adjusted to desired size.
