Brisbane visit

In two weekends time I will be in Brisbane to teach Intermediate Merezhka at All Threads Embroidery. I was up there last year, and had a wonderful time. If you’d like to go, but haven’t already booked, there is still space in the class, so call Kerryn and book in quickly!

This year, the 40th anniversary exhibition of the Embroiderers Guild of QLD is on while I am in Brisbane. The opening is on the Friday night and I have been invited to attend – lucky me! My red hardanger bag will be on display (not that I’m a member, but they expressed an interest in it seeing it fits with their 40th anniversary/ ruby theme) as part of the exhibition.

It will be great to meet the lovely ladies at the QLD guild.

I also plan to do a little sight-seeing on the Friday during the day as I am not very familiar with Brisbane. I have been there when I was younger, but my parents have never really been into cities, so if we travelled through one, we usually spent very little time there. My parents are much more interested in natural wonders so that is where our focus lay.

If anyone can recommend any good needlework shops to visit in Brisbane, I’d love to hear from you. I can recommend All Threads Embroidery, as they have a fabulous range of threads (and other stuff too!)
