Festival of Quilts 2026

 


Booking for workshops and talks has now opened for the Festival of Quilts 2026

This year I will not be teaching a workshop but will be delivering a brand new talk in the Festival Theatre on Friday 31st July at 2.30pm

The talk is called "Textile Art - how to tell a story"

I am delighted to be returning to the Creative Textiles Studio www.thefestivalofquilts.co.uk/creative-textiles-studio/ and will be demonstrating on Saturday 1st August from 1pm - 4pm

The studio is FREE and open for everyone in the show to come and watch, ask questions, and buy the products being used.

This year I will be demonstrating using Lutradur to stitch, colour, foil and burn to make up into 3D items. Packs will be on sale.






And of course I will have a small stand at the show in the new 'Meet the Teacher' zone. My stand will be at the end of the row QIA15

It would be lovely to see lots of textile friends at the show, particularly if you have done a workshop with me and have finished your piece - please bring it along to show


The deadline to enter a quilt, or quilt creation into the Festival of Quilts is 10th June. 

Now what shall I enter this year?
