Upcoming Workshops
Australasian Quilt Convention 10-13 April 2025
Learn with me at AQC 2025! I will be teaching the following workshops
- Abstraction in Action (2 days): learn how to create an abstract composition drawn from reality. Working from a personal source of inspiration found in nature or place, students will learn the fundamentals of abstraction through observation, reflection and repetition.I developed this design workshop especially for students looking to stretch their creative muscles and to explore abstraction both in concept and practice.
- Zig Zag Pizzazz (1 day): create energetic designs with flair and style using freeform piecing techniques. Brenda will guide you step-by-step through colour, composition and construction exploring zig zag lines and shape.
- Logs & Ladders: Building with Improvisation (1 day): convert your scraps into dynamic compositions by building with improvisational units – log cabins, ladders and more. Learn freeform cutting without rulers or templates; how to join irregular blocks; and the effective use of positive and negative space. Explore the design principles of repetition and variation. Develop scrap management strategies for future projects
