Barbara Weeks and Mosaic Quilts

Barbara Weeks came to Hexagon Quilters last week and gave a talk on colouring fabric, followed by a workshop on her mosaic technique the next day.  I nearly didn’t go to the workshop as it was school holidays and I was not sure that it would be for me anyway.  Well sometimes when you try something that you are ambivalent about it does just click, and this is one technique that I will definitely be developing in my own way.  Barbara is an excellent teacher giving wise advice on choice of image and teechnique to suit each individual student.  I have finished the piece that I started that day - almost the only sewing I have done this week (picture will be on the site soon).  And I am brimming over with new ideas.  Usual story though - so many ideas, so little time.
