Continuous line patterns, suitable for long arm quilting machines, some designs are suitable for short arm quilting machines. The designs are suitable for domestic machine quilting. These patterns are readily adaptable to applique. I specialise in Australiana designs - Fauna and Flora. The patterns are mostly in A4 size, some A3 size. Also have a Pirates and Treasure set as it is often difficult to find designs that are suitable for boys. web page is not up to date, so if you would like further information do not hesitate to contact Janice personally.

IMAGES IN APPLIQUE - 2 days
This workshop will teach you to turn any of your own photographs into a larger fabric picture. We use only tools which are easily available, and no drawing skills are necessary. It is far too short - but will give you a good idea of the process.
IMAGES IN APPLIQUE EXTENDED - 4 or 5 days
The first two days of this class is the same as the two day Images in Appliqué class. In the second stage we have a chance to finish and extend the image, to look at possibilities for making the quilt so much more exciting, and to extend the image. This could be with blocks, further images, or by placing it in a wall as a window or a picture.
FREE MACHINE QUILTING - 1 day
This class is designed to teach you to do wonderful free machine quilting with the feed dogs down.
HAND APPLIQUE WITH SPRAY STARCH - 2 day
In this class you will learn to use hand applique with spray starch in a technique which I find easier than traditional needleturn.
PLAYING WITH KALEIDOSCOPES - 2 day
This class plays with the versatile kaleidoscope block and scrap fabrics in several colour ranges to produce a variety of whirling patterns in a stunning quilt
PIECES OF EIGHT - 2 day
This class will teach you a quick way to make half square triangles, and show you several ways to use this technique to produce a variety of shimmering quilts.
BROKEN STAR - I day
This class teaches the same eight half-square triangle system as Pieces of Eight, but covers fewer design principles, concentrates on one dramatic quilt and makes it in one day.
