Most of the classes will be this project from my book "Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimarães"
Over the next few weeks, I have quite a few classes coming up.
Starting off, this coming Saturday I will be doing a demonstration of Portuguese Whitework at the Embroiderers’ Guild of NSW exhibition. This isn’t a class, but you can come along and see me in action, see the projects from my book, ask me lots of questions, and enjoy the exhibition in general. My time slot for demonstrating is 12 noon until 1pm. Some of that will be setting up and taking down time, so if you come in the middleish of that time, that will probably be best.
The Embroiderers’ Guild exhibition “Beyond Imagination” runs from Friday 27th to Sunday 29th July 2012 10am to 3pm at Concord West Masonic Hall, 315 Concord Rd, Concord West. Admission $10, children 15yrs and under are free.
Next Monday, 23rd August, I will be teaching Portuguese Whitework at Lyn’s Fine Needlework at Baulkham Hills.
I will then be doing a Portuguese Whitework class at the Miranda group of the Embroiderers’ Guild.
In September, I will be at A Stitch in Time in Hobart, teaching Portuguese Whitework.
October brings a Portuguese Whitework class at the Coffs Harbour Guild.
If you’re in Canberra, on 26-28th October, I’ll teaching a Mountmellick embroidery workshop (2 days) and a Portuguese Whitework workshop (1 day) at the Craft Frog in Kambah. You can book into one workshop, or both!
Moving on to November, I’ll be teaching Portuguese Whitework at the Embroiderers’ Guild of NSW (3rd November), and later in the month, at the Toowoomba group of the Qld Embroiderers’ Guild.
If you’re interested in joining any of these classes, please contact the shop or group that is hosting me. Its going to be great fun!
