PowerPoint Lectures
"A Backbone, a funny bone, and a wishbone"
Three things you need to succeed in a quilting life (or in any life!). A new talk for 2018 giving you an insight into all that's happening in Philippa's creative world! Title credit to Riba McEntire. "The Book, The Quilt, The Scarf" A look at how one person (who is amongst other things a wife, mother, quilt-maker, teacher, author, gardener and cook) fits everything into her busy schedule whilst trying to live as sustainably, ethically and beautifully as possible! “Making Award Winning Quilts. Secrets For Success” Philippa tells you all about her quiltmaking journey, starting with the tiny hand sewn dolls’ dresses she made as a child through to what is in her sewing machine right now - and everything else inbetween! Find out about the inspiration, the materials & techniques and the stories behind each piece of work. Everything you wanted to know about making original quilts for exhibition is illustrated, in detail, in this “Quilter Tells All” lecture. "Ten Thousand Miles, Twelve Countries, One House And A Couple Of Quilts" Leaving Saudi Arabia in 2004, after having lived there for fifteen years, my family and I drove home across the Middle East and Europe to begin a new life in Yorkshire. This is the story of that journey, of an ongoing house renovation and finally finding time for a bit of quilting! 'The Good, The Bad And The Heat. Life, Quilting And Saudi Arabia' Award winning quilt-maker tells all. A light-hearted look at living in the desert and how enforced isolation from the quilting community gave one quilter the opportunity to overcome many obstacles and become quite good at sewing! In the UK Philippa will bring her ipad and projector. When travelling abroad only the ipad will be brought. |
