Save the date!! I’m so excited that we’ve been able to squeeze into Michelle Marvig’s hectic schedule as international travel guide! Michelle will be with us in February for three days of teaching.  

This is the listing for our two day class on Saturday 18th & Sunday 19th of February. On this day, learn to make Michelle’s super popular Head or Tails quilt. The quilt features the Calico Compass block as pictured below and uses Michelle’s Urban Compass template set. (Template Purchase will be required unless you already have them). There is also a One Day class with Michelle on the Friday the 17th to make a Whirling Dervish or Sunset Blue Cushion. Check the listing here.  

This a very flexible quilt where you can choose to use fussy cutting techniques to employ optical illusions to make it exciting and contemporary or consider fabric choice and colour values to make a more traditional compass quilt.

Two days are a lovely long time to benefit from Michelle’s broad experience in the patchwork and quilting industry. She is a popular teacher at large quilting conventions both in Australia and overseas, has run a patchwork shop, was the editor of the Quilters Companion magazine, working on the publication and the DVD series. Michelle currently designs, makes, teaches and  hosts international textile travel tours.  During covid she self-published a book called Lemonade Quilts, a project that kept her going during the uncertain times.
