Robyne Melia Crazy Patchwork Workshop Series.

Robyne's traditional Victorian style crazy patchwork is world renowned and her passion and generosity as a tutor make her classes a whirlwind of inspiration, colour, beautiful stitches and fun.
The 4 classes are structured with a break after the first week to give everyone time to stitch down their foundation pieces. Bring your own stash of silks, velvets or other favourite pieces and we will provide a table of silks and velvets to add to it as inspiration takes you (don't worry if you don't have a stash there will be plenty available for you to chose from.)  We will also provide a wide range of threads to choose from and the prewashed calico foundation. All you need to bring along with your stash is your sewing kit. As always morning and afternoon tea is also included.

All classes are from 10am - 3.30pm.

  1. Such bliss! I adore the Robbie Burns kit and so wish I was in Melbourne to take the class. I am planning a trip to Victoria later in the year and your delicious shop is high on my list of 'things to do'!
