Parkhurst Branch Workshop


The Emu Park CWA Hall was a hive of activity when the Parkhurst Branch hosted a patchwork workshop led by Lynne and an enthusiastic band of patchworkers who enjoyed learning the techniques of fabric stencilling, Japanese sashiko and crazy patch. Members of several branches attended and enjoyed Lynne's patient relaxed presentation. Not only did the ladies learn techniques, they heard interesting background and historical explanations which put the project into perspective.

At the end of the weekend everyone had the knowledge and ability to complete their work at home. The hospitality of Parkhurst was much appreciated with their sumptuous morning and afternoon teas plus tasty lunches. The weekend was a great success. Photos of the completed quilts will be posted later.
