20.01.2022 How we get hundreds of FQ’s folded... and this isn’t even close to a quarter of them! My biggest small is my assistant in this one! The production quality is low but here’s two hours of work in 25 seconds! #thecreativeretreatoz #modernmakers #canberracreatives #modernmaker #modernquilt #modernquilting #modernstyle #quilter #quilters #quiltlove #handmadequilt #abmcrafty #calledtobecrafty #makersgonnamake #livecreatively #creativehappylife #createmore #creativeminds #createeveryday #creativelife #patchwork #patchworkquilt #tarafaughnaninoz #solidsfabric #fatquarters #familybusiness

17.01.2022 It’s been an energising weekend for me, getting back to teaching classes, this time at the Gunning Patchwork Weekend in the grounds of the historic Anglican Church. These seven ladies challenged themselves in my To The Point triangles class. Thanks to you all for taking the adventure! The first quilt is by Julie who took my Gunning class two years ago in Circles and brought back her finished quilt to share!... And HUGE thanks to @annetteshawwatson and @kath_ell for all your help being shop girls, you were ace!!! #thecreativeretreatoz #procrasticraft #modernmakers #canberracreatives #modernmaker #modernquilt #modernquilting #modernstyle #quilter #quilters #quiltlove #handmadequilt #makersgonnamake #livecreatively #creativehappylife #createmore #creativeminds #createeveryday #creativelife #patchwork #patchworkquilt #trianglequilt #tothepointquilts #gunningpatchworkweekend @ Gunning, New South Wales See more

13.01.2022 Hey Aus Friends! The uber talented Tara Faughnan Quilts is making her first trip to Australia in November and I'm thrilled to be hosting retreats with her. A couple of places have just opened up in both Victoria and NSW due to cancellations (sad for those unlucky folks, great for you!) - take a look, I'd love to welcome you on retreat! http://www.thecreativeretreat.com/shop-now/
