After having dropped into Catharina’s Country Collection, I am mesmerised by the fantastic range of Antique Floral Fabrics she has in this gorgeous Patchwork Quilting Shop.

You will be thrilled when you see what is on offer in Catharina’s Country Collection.

Quilters Barn are at the Brisbane Craft & Quilt Fair from the 21st October to 25th October.

So if you’re in or near Brisbane, then it’s a perfect opportunity to stop by and meet Julie Wallace and her team, or maybe even sit in on Julie’s workshops…

Quick Quilts with Lantern Ruler at 10am in workshop area 4, where you’ll learn to make a variety of projects with this ruler and strips of fabric. Julie will show you new patterns and quilts.

Patchwork Made Easy for Beginners at 1pm, again in workshop area 4, you’ll discover the quick and easy way to make quilts with quick patchwork and foundation papers. Plus learn about colour and fabric choice from an expert!

Even if you’re a seasoned quilter, with a good number of years under your belt, there’s a good chance you’ll learn something new in one of Julie’s workshops.

Here’s some more pictures for you – just click on the image to see a larger picture…
