Welcome to The Quilting Room’s classes page
I am so excited to finally launch my classes and sewing sessions on the third Saturday of each month in the beautiful countryside town of One Tree Hill, located only 10 minutes from metropolitan Adelaide, South Australia.
The One Tree Hill Institute Hall is located at 1009 Black Top Road. The Institute has been beautifully maintained over the years and features two main halls with a fully equipped commercial kitchen.
The sessions will be across two groups:
Quilt Basics & Beyond
Quilt Basics & Beyond is a supported learning concept designed to assist participants with quilt/patchwork-related projects.
This may be a new project for you or one that you have started and need some assistance/motivation to continue with / complete. Sewing techniques supported include Piecing, Foundation Paper Piecing, English Paper Piecing, Stitcheries, Applique including raw edge, needle-turned and wool Applique. Helen’s specialty is wool applique & embellishment.
Sue Spargo enthusiast, this is the place for you!
Helen first fell in love with Sue Spargo’s wool embroidery in 2011 when she signed up for her first Sue Spargo Block of the Month (BOM) Imperial Blooms. Since then, Helen has attended several workshops with Sue and undertaken more than ten of her BOM’s over the years. Helen also now sells Sue Spargo BOM, studio dyed wools, patterns, kits, notions and threads. Helen is proficient in and accredited to teach Sue Spargo stitchery. Projects taught from beginners to advanced. Please visit my Sue Spargo department for project ideas
