You likely know QuiltJane: you may read her blog, follow her on Instagram, or know her patterns. QuiltJane really gets around (after attending Spring 2015 Market in Minneapolis she taught in Iowa and would love to do more international teaching), but she's rooted firmly in Australia.
Gidday!
I’m told that there’s an acquired art to getting the nasally twang just right when saying that. (Y’all is definitely easier.)
Welcome to Aussie Week on The Cutting Table. While there are a few in the office who believe that this is nothing more than a shameless ploy for a couple of us to wangle our way into a trip to Australia - we thought we being a little more subtle than that! - there really is a lot to chat about. Australia and Texas have a lot in common!
The preparations took a village. And many weeks - actually, the planning has been going on for many months.
There were Moda fabric designers to invite and vendors to be contacted. Meals had to be scheduled with caterers and somebody had to figure out how many people would be required to make everything run smoothly. The warehouses were "spiffed" up and there was actual decorating - though it's called "visual merchandising". Whatever. The place looked great.
The host was ready for company.
