Event Details

Jo Dixey is returning to us on September Sat 22nd, Sun 23rd & and Mon 24th with some new amazing projects to interest embroiderers and patchworkers alike. 

Incredibly this will be her fourth teaching trip to Berry in 2 and a half years! A fact that is not at all amazing when you get to know her.  Jo is full of stories about her life as a professional embroiderer both in NZ and the UK where she trained at the Royal School of Needlework. She runs a relaxed but highly inspirational classroom where everyone is enthusiastically sharing the wonders of what needle and thread can do. So it’s not surprising that Jo has built up a loyal following in Australia! Come along to a class and you will benefit from the calm,  yet creative atmosphere she fosters in her classroom, her fabulous teaching skills, her impeccable knowledge of her subject & her mastery of technique.  

This time around, Jo is offering three different classes and you are able to book in for one, two or for all of the projects.  Because the classes are all complementary Jo is able to teach all three simultaneously if needed. So you can pick the project that looks the most exciting to you and pick your best day or days and book in. You could pick one project and work on it for two or three days, the choice is yours. Classes are $80 each. If you book for all three days you’ll receive a $10 discount on each day bringing the total to $210 for the three days.  Read on to find out about all the projects.

Embroidered Fabric:

Do you have a beautiful piece of fabric that you’ve never been able to cut up? Well now is your chance to celebrate its beauty by embellishing it with stitch in a variety of ways. A wonderful companion class to the 100 Day sampler because the techniques are very similar but you are using the fabric to guide your stitch work rather than the grid. The embellishment could include applique by layering up fabric and then stitching onto it. Have a look at Jo’s samples to see the how this project could unfold.
