Trip to Adelaide to Teach “Donwell Abbey”

I am recently back from three days of teaching in Adelaide for The Quilting Room.



We had a great retreat organised by Helen Campbell.  Lots of stitching, eating, talking, laughing and learning.

Everyone did a great job at starting their “Donwell” journey.  Lots of fussy cutting and playing with colour.  

Here are lots of the centre block mandalas under construction.





















Lots of pot work on Day 2.














Fussy cutting of pie slices by Alice.


Pies by Andrea (she finished them at home, lol).



The show and tell of quilts finished from previous years was amazing!

“Pemberley” by Shirl.  Beautiful work!




A striking “Pemberley” by Andrea.





And an uncharacteristic pretty version of “Highbury” by Andrea.  It is absolutely lovely.




Here is a wonderful Christmas colour version of “Hartfield” by Danielle.
The outside blocks still to be added.




Love the striped zig zag border, very clever.



Thank you for a great weekend, ladies.  Happy stitching!
