"I can't draw!" Some of the comments, but Michele didn't give the girls an option - it was a case of, "When you have drawn you will get your pack of goodies." A pack of goodies? It's amazing what quilters will do for goodies! |
| Michele showed how she tackles a drawing based around an architectural design, or an element from a William Morris piece. |

Demonstration of machine stitching. Full discussion of fabric, threads, needles, beads and other embellishments, cords and piping, etc Books available for research and further inspiration. Michele worked with each student at her machine to ensure that the tension was correct. Some turned their own design into fabric, others used one of Michele's designs. Below is a gallery of most of the blocks produced over the two days - apologies to those whose block was not photographed. Thankyou to Pat Norton for the loan of her camera. THANKYOU to Michele, a very generous tutor. |
