Photo of me and two of my quilts


Here's a photo of me taken twelve months ago at the opening of my art exhibition in Elounda, standing in front of two of my quilts. The larger Trip Around the World is entitled A Cloak for Hera and the smaller Cathedral Windows is called 'Klimt'. I'm working on a wall hanging which I promised my son ages ago, called 'Cloak for a Greek Hero' - as I wanted to keep the Greek theme for my wall hangings. I am also (as per previous post) trying to find time to start planning an exhibition piece for the Touch Festival in Aghios Nikolaos in September this year - maybe once my exhibition is over this month I will have more time.

Quilting Course in Crete next Spring

I am offering a quilting course based on The Flowers of Crete here in Pano Elounda next Spring - the date to be announced. The course will cover a variety of quilting methods and the use of transfer methods to apply images of flowers to fabric, including silk. There will be two sample quilts to offer inspiration - one will be a traditional quilt, using hand-painted or stencilled blocks and the other using an experimental approach, which will let your imagination run riot! All materials will be included in the cost of the week's course. More information soon!
