Join Lorena Uriarte, renewed Modern Quilter, to learn how to make this super cute zip pouch featuring your own quilted panels!
Have you been looking for your next zippy pouch project? Something practical to make for friends or to treat yourself. Look no further than the Emmaline Retreat Bag. It’s such a clever pattern, designed by @emmalinebags using their special hardware that opens wide for easy access to the contents of your pouch.
Use up your scraps and make a Kawandi inspired exterior, or maybe you’ve got some Boro or Sashiko or simply Quilted panels you’d like to put to work. A special piece of fabric or orphaned patchwork blocks would also work well. To make the large pouch you’ll need two (2) pieces at least 18.5” x 12” each.

2024-04-11 10:00 - 2024-04-12 17:00 | Royal Exhibition Building, 9 Nicholson St, Carlton Gardens, Melbourne, Victoria, 3053, Australia
Do you have a quilt that no longer sparks joy? Or want to be warm and cosy in the latest cottagecore trend? Learn how to confidently transform a quilt or quilted panels into a quilt coat.
You can use a completed quilt, pre-quilted fabric or specifically make quilted panels according to the coat pattern requirements.
Learn how to choose the right pattern, how quilting and wadding can affect drape, how to cut pattern pieces including collar, hood and pocket options if applicable. You’ll also learn how to sew together a quilt coat, the technique of adding bias-binding to seams and see demonstrations of buttonhole and press stud closures.
You will leave with a completed quilt coat with possibly some binding to stitch at home.
Skill level: Basic skills to advanced.
Students must be confident in using sewing patterns and machines.
The quilt must be quilted prior to the class.

Winding Ways : AQC
2024-04-13 09:00 - 17:00 | Royal Exhibition Building, 9 Nicholson St, Carlton Gardens, Melbourne, Victoria, 3053, Australia
The traditional block Winding Ways is also known as The Wheel of Mystery. Learn the magic of secondary design and accurate curved machine piecing. Discover how to transform your scraps into a cohesive design using colour and value, or use an ombre fabric for a simple, no waste design.
This workshop will focus on machine piecing the 12″ Winding Ways block to create interesting secondary patterns. The exercise can be simple or complex, traditional or modern, depending on the fabric choice.
You will learn how simple gentle curves yield an impressive impact, how fabric choices can change your quilt’s look, the impact of fussy cutting and how to make a secondary design ‘pop’. You’ll achieve accurate cutting and curved piecing techniques using the 12″ Winding Ways acrylic templates.
There is an option to create a straight or scalloped quilt edge, for those seeking an extra challenge!
The expected outcome of the class is that you will make enough blocks to create a cushion or small quilt.
Skill level: Basic skills required
Materials: The 12″ Winding Ways Template Set is required for this class.
Kit cost: $45 for templates, payable direct to the tutor. Please have the exact amount in cash in an envelope with your name on, to hand to the tutor at the start of the class.

Kawandi : AQC
2024-04-14 09:00 - 17:00 | Royal Exhibition Building, 9 Nicholson St, Carlton Gardens, Melbourne, Victoria, 3053, Australia
Kawandi are traditional utility quilts made by the Siddi community of India. Each quilt has a beautiful texture. Traditionally, they are made from sari scraps, patched and stitched together from the outer edges of a foundation piece.
This is a technique class where you will learn the art of Kawandi hand-stitching and the quilt-as-you-go method. This means that you will piece and quilt your sampler at the same time.
The Kawandi process of piecing and hand stitching is mindful and relaxing. Choosing each new fabric addition, whether a solid or print, then stitching it in place, is meditative and creative.
The expected outcome of the class is that you will complete a Kawandi sampler piece, of about 45cm (18″) square.
Skill level: All
