Tutor Introduction:

Charlotte is a quilter and textile artist. She is deeply inspired by the unique flora and fauna of NZ and by trying to capture the distinctive colours that surround her. Charlotte colours her own cloth with dye or paint, then cuts, layers and quilts. She is also a teacher, writer, speaker, quilt judge, blogger and podcaster.

Classes Taught:

My classes have a focus on working with silk organza - from colouring it with dye or paint, using it in applique or whole cloth overlays.
I also teach botanical printing, fabric dyeing and positive/negative applique.
Classes evolve and new classes are developed regularly, so please contact me.

Lisa Call

Judge City: Paraparaumu
Judging Experience:

My judging leans more towards the artistic merits of the work - aka form (the design) and content (what it is about). I also consider technique and have a solid background in the traditions of our medium.

I started quilting in 1980 and won numerous awards in the quilt show circuit in the USA. In the mid 90s I transitioned to art and in 2015 I transitioned from the USA to NZ as my home.

Training:

Jenny Bacon AQ Course one day

Is Available to:
  • Scribe and support a Quilt Judge
  • Judge at a Quilt Show

I have been a quilter for 30+ years and have been avidly involved in Symposiums, Aotearoa Quilters and Christchurch Quilters. I have exhibited throughout New Zealand and Australia as well as the United States and Canada. I appreciate all forms of quilting although mainly do contemporary work myself. When I judge I look at design, colour, workmanship and overall impact of the work and credit myself with ensuring each quilt receives a full assessment of the above before awarding any prizes etc.
