WORKSHOP NEWS
Julie attended the Double Trouble Workshop in Hobart in April as a stroke of luck. While visiting Quilt shops she noticed the sign advertising the "Double Trouble" talk and workshop, and at first did not believe they were in Tasmania. But phone calls, lots of luck and good coincidence along with total re-scheduling of our planned travels around the island resulted in a delightful time at their workshop at the Moonah Arts Centre.
In May Julie has been teaching her Creative Colouring and Design Workshop at AQC in Melbourne and at Patchwork by Sea in Adelaide. All workshops were a delight and you can see below the great work her participants created. One of these ladies is over 80 and had a great time.
