Russell Barratt comes to Oast

 Everyone enjoyed Russell's talk. I'm not sure if it was deficient hearing aids or being in the wrong place but I couldn't hear very well. I did admire his quilts though. Self taught he used some very idiosyncratic mehods but they worked.

At the workshop next day I was impressed at the thoroughness of his approach with lots of samples and practice pieces. He was a very nice gentle man.


His work was mostly appliqued rather
than pieced surprisingly.

This one won the ustainable category
at Festival of Quilts



Student work - I can't recognise mine.
I didn't do well but I enjoyed the class.
