See me and Smøyg at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair

This year, I will again be at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair. It’s on at the Sydney Exhibition Centre at Darling Harbour from 20th to 24th June. Stand D06: go in the front entrance, turn left and head for Aisle D – Stand D06. Look for the orange flag.

My new book will be there!

I’ll have copies of “Smøyg: Pattern Darning from Norway” with me! You will be able to purchase your very own signed copy from me.

All the projects from the book will be on display so you can see them in real life, which we all agree is always so much better! I will have supplies kits for the projects, as they use wool and some silks that are not readily available.

To help you get started on your smøyg journey, you will be able to book in with me on the Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday to start a bookmark. There will be no charge to learn, but you will need to purchase the book and the bookmark supplies kit.

New Mountmellick kit!

I’ll have a new Mountmellick embroidery kit – a pomegranate biscornu. This kit doesn’t feature the knitted fringe, so for those who can’t knit, or don’t like the fringe, this is a great kit for you.

The kit includes fabric, Mountmellick thread, and a needle. The kit does not include buttons or backing fabric, so that you can choose some that suit you. There are step-by-step instructions for all the stitches, and included are instructions for making the biscornu.

And I’ll also have…

As well as all that, I’ll have all my other books; precut Zweigart, Graziano and Weddigen linen, and Mountmellick fabric; Vaupel and Heilenbeck linen banding; Mountmellick thread; Mountmellick knitting cotton; Klass and Gessmann quality wooden sit-on hoops and stands; needles; pendant kits; pendants; embroidery scissors; a display of projects from my other books and so much more!

I’m coming to Melbourne!

In very exciting news for people in Melbourne and surrounds, you’ll be delighted to know that I’ll also be at the Melbourne Craft and Quilt fair for the first time this year! Come and see me there! Stand E08, Melbourne Craft and Quilt Fair­­­­, 26–29 July 2018, Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre.
