been in NZ



Been away for a few weeks, at a quilt symposium in NZ, it was a amazing experience and i came away with lots of inspiration.
I will show you pictures when i finish some of the projects.
I have had some amazing classes recently, i learnt how to screen print and also how to dye fabric, am planning on going out today and buying some ink to do some more screenprinting, i love the idea of turning plain fabric into something special and then using it to make a quilt or clothing, so much more effort, but it is really worth it.
I don't know if many of you have heard of Print's Charming? they screenprint fabric and Marcus Brothers also sell their designs, anyway on my way back from NZ we stopped off at their studio and said hello. It was so great to see their studio and all the wonderful things they design. (and of course pick up a few little bits and pieces.... one can never have too much fabric!





Here is a photo that i got Stu to take for me, of Cath and I at the studio.
