There’s a question that many Kiwis, particularly the ones who are booked into my classes at the upcoming ANZEG conference, have probably been wondering. “Will Yvette be teaching at the ANZEG conference this year?” (I have two classes scheduled, booked in before I got sick.)

She did warn me that this was […] Another finish from a class on my recent New Zealand teaching tour. This time, Karen’s Mountmellick Wildflower Cushion. The stitching on this is simply gorgeous – you’ve done a marvellous job, Karen! If you’d like to make a wildflower cushion of your own, this is available as a kit. There are also two other […] I posted regularly about my NZ teaching tour while I was there, on social media. I wasn’t able to also post here, as it is a little harder to do.
