Individuals
Weekly 4 hr classes are delivered at our studio in Warrandyte where numbers are limited to 7 people.
Throughout the year we also offer a number of Retreats at suitable venues where you can quilt all week long. These can be project based so you get the satisfaction of starting and finishing a project. Alternatively, you can call on Anita's advice in completing your own UFOs. These Retreats are catered and often include accommodation if you need it.
Anita can also come to tutor at your retreat.
