…What a year

8 December 2016

It’s been a while since I’ve had a chance to add to my website sadly but life has been busy. My head still spinning I think. What a year it’s been.

Touring with Bernina at some of the major shows around Australia, Bernina also taking my Art quilts on tour to decorate their stand even when I’m not there.

I’ve taught workshops at 2 major retreats for Caroline Sharkey in Coffs Harbor and Uluru. Managed to keep myself together when the other tutors are such big names in my world being Caroline herself and the wonderful Gloria Loughman. Then also having a workshop in Sydney with My Sewing Supplies.

So if that wasn’t enough, I managed to do a couple of articles for magazines as well as a DVD for Quilters Companion.

Then there’s life at home, with my daughter moving to Wellington, NZ and making her mark in the world of animation and now working for Weta Digital.  Celebrating the 25th Wedding Anniversary with my husband Carl by heading of to Africa for 3 weeks on Safari not realising it was going to be as fantastic as it was.  Anyway with still running a household, business, family and my gorgeous dogs, I’m so happy to have time again at home, getting back to being creative. Lets see what I come up with in 2017 and beyond.

They’re Back!!

    What a stunning year for an amazingly talented and wonderful person. Looking forward to seeing what you produce from the African photos and now the new fur babies. No pressure!! ??

    I was thinking the same thing as the previous reply – I wonder if some African critters will show up in quilts? Sounds like you had a wonderful year – congratulations!
