Workshop Type: Hand Sewing or Sewing Machine or Both
Level: All Levels



Rosalie is obsessed with light and colour, loving the rich contrasts resulting from the juxtaposition of 
cottons, silks, velvets, brocade, and sheers. She loves traditional quilts but wants her quilts to say 
something about their time and place in history and come directly from her life.
As a teacher and artist, her aim is to fill her students with confidence and the excitement she feels 
about creating art in fabric and fibre. Rosalie aims to guide them in the direction of their interest in a 
non-threatening supportive environment, so that they create more than they thought possible.
