Once you book your first session you’ll receive a questionnaire to make you think deeply about your business & your creative work. It’s designed to challenge you to get clear on your inner desires & gives insight into the way forward.

We’ll start with a 60-minute zoom session to get clear on what you really want. Our conversation will be determined by what work you want to do, but this will be the space where I get to tap into your inner whisper by listening deeply to you.

When you work with me you get my complete support, from follow-up emails or messages to continually seeking to find the right solutions or resources for you. When I’m in the garden I’ll be pondering your business to give you the best of my creative brain.

My goal is to do the work that you don’t want to do (ie design & build a website, create templates, etc), and provide you with the skills, tools & support to do the work you need to do in your business.

During our time together I’ll seek, provide, create or make the worksheets, tools or resources you need. I’m an ideas person and will give you the best ways of stepping deeper into yourself and higher into your business.

This might be actual writable worksheets or printable tips, or it might be a video recorded just for you to show you how. Or perhaps it’ll be links to things to inspire, excite or uplift you.

After each session I send follow-up notes and action plan, as well as weekly to-do lists, ideas and things you don’t need to worry about.

I think it’s important to take things off our to-do lists as well, so I get clear on what is & what isn’t working in your business and your life. I’ll give you permission to stop posting on facebook or instagram, or provide ways to bring the joy back to those spaces.

You’ll receive clear actionable tips, insights & advice from me that works for you as a person, a creative soul & a business owner. Sometimes I’m challenging and will push you in new directions, but always when I know you’re ready.

The community is entirely online, hosted on a special ‘community’ sharing site that is NOT social media. Once you join for the membership, you’ll receive an email with a link to create an account and join the community.

The creative video courses are hosted on my online teaching site (which unfortunately is on a different site to the community page - neither of them offer bot options). If you’re already a student in any of my online classes you’ll have an account already, otherwise you’ll receive an email with instructions on how to access.

You can always contact me.

This is an online community space and our members come from all around the world - Australia, New Zealand, Canada, UK, USA, Asia, Europe…

Our zoom calls are scheduled at different times, as best as I can, to make sure that as many of you as possible can join in. I live in Australia, so base the calls around days and hours that work with my family. I also work calls around my guests’ time frames, which depends on what country they’re from.

All calls are recorded so you can watch at your own time. You’ll have access to previous month’s calls, as well, in our community page.

We’d love to have you in our community - there are beginners who will absolutely value your experience. The wisdom keepers in our communities are important and vital, and passing on your knowledge is something so special; we thank you for being part of our community.

Also, I fully believe that we are all learning every day - and in my personal experience there are valuable lessons to be learned from those around us; sometimes the ‘beginners’ have a very new way of understanding things we thought we know. Connecting with others via zoom is also nourishing for you, regardless of your experience or skills.

I’ve had many experienced students in my in-person and online workshops who learn new things. I truly believe that learning things with new eyes is a great way to shift our perceptions of how we work, what we create and re-look at traditional skills.

Yes please, do join us! This community is very supportive and offers insightful realistic advice, tips and ideas for beginners to start on. Our members range from very beginners (who have never stitched before) right through to advanced textile artists.

The projects and how-tos that I share are perfect for beginners, with step-by-step videos or instructions, and lots of jumping off ideas to spark your own imagination.

I hope that you’ll be able to use what you already have. Every textile person I know has more fabric, notions & supplies than they’ll ever use!

Mostly you’ll need any fabric - scraps, lovely collections, clothing, linens - some thread & needles. My aim is for this to be a space where you can use what you have.

But if you happen to not have a lot of supplies please email me for specifics, so I can help you out. Many of our members swap and share their supplies as well.

It all begins with an idea.

This is an online course with immediate and life-time access. You can watch the videos as many times as you like, including any upgrades and extra content that I add over time.

The course is housed on my special online course site. Upon purchase you’ll receive links to create your own account.

You’ll learn how to hand or machine stitch your own art quilt from start to finish. I show the basic stitches for joining pieces of fabric, as well as how to do ‘big-stitch’ quilting.

This is a course for those of you who are eager to step beyond rules and patterns to lean into your creative instinct and make improv quilts that share your own story.
