LONGARM WORKSHOPS
Build confidence, make thoughtful choices and quilt with ease
Whether you’re brand new to longarm quilting or ready to grow your skills, my workshops are designed to help you feel more confident, creative and in control of your quilting journey.
THE STUDIO
Workshops take place in my home studio near Petersfield - a quiet, fully equipped space designed for focused, friendly learning.
The studio sits within the South Downs National Park, in Hampshire, and is easy to reach by road or rail, with links via the A3, M27, and trains to Petersfield or Havant.
My studio is equipped with high-quality Bernina longarm quilting machines, chosen to support confident, hands-on learning in a calm, focused setting.
Depending on the workshop, you’ll work on either a Bernina Q24 frame - with automation available when it’s part of the learning - or a Bernina Q20 seated longarm.
I’ll guide you onto the machine that best suits the session and your experience.
I also provide the tools and materials you’ll need, along with guidance tailored to your level.
Whether you’re trying longarm quilting for the first time or looking to deepen your skills, you’ll have the space, equipment and support to explore at a steady, comfortable pace.
All equipment, materials, lunch, and refreshments are provided, so you can settle in and focus on your learning.
THE WORKSHOPS
Have you ever wondered what makes a good longarm quilter?
After more than 25 years at the frame, I’ve learned that it isn’t about stitching the most complicated design. It’s about reading the quilt, trusting your instincts and choosing something that feels right - for both you and the quilt.
In my workshops, we focus on:
Reading the quilt and understanding what it needs
Choosing designs that suit your current skill level
Growing confidence with every quilt you finish
My workshops are grouped to help you find what feels right for you, right now. Whether you’re just starting out, building confidence, or exploring something more specific, each one is hands-on, supportive and rooted in real studio practice.
Explore the workshops at your own pace and find what feels right for you.
