This course will be led by Chris Hammacott.  Chris has spent the past 29 years designing, teaching and working with textiles, specialising in patchwork and quilting.  Chris is also a prolific writer on the subject, producing regular content for some of the leading magazines and publications in the industry.

The Weekend

Join us to make a patchwork quilt or hanging, which will be inspired by the landscape of Tenby.  The first morning will include a tour of Tenby with lots of opportunity to take photographs that will be transferred to fabric.  An easy technique, that can perfectly capture the town’s beauty. With its ancient buildings, views, the sea and the shore –  Tenby provides the perfect inspiration for your project, which will become a treasured memento of a great holiday experience.

This is just one of the beautiful pieces of work created by Chris Hammacott.
