Teacher PDs - Information and Resources
There is a wealth of information and technical notes available via the Web Workshops page. Please check those out.
Access to specific resources for textiles and art teachers, as well as hand-outs for your students, will be added to this page continuously.
Check into the Teachers’ Support Group on my Facebook page and share your ideas as well as mine with your colleagues. Please note that personal emails or phone calls are the best way to catch up with me. Social media is not my favourite place for communicating personal messages!

Next PDs in Fabric Design 2025 … Hands-On and via Zoom … workshop topics will be customised to best assist those participating where possible.
SEPTEMBER - Hands-On in my Studio, or Prac sessions via Zoom
Tuesday 23 with Wednesday 24 option,
and Thursday 25 September 2025
9.30 am till 3.30 pm each day
ONE DAY WORKSHOP - Tue & Thu: Innovative Technology for Fabric Designing - understanding the basics, and more
TWO DAY WORKSHOP - Tue & Wed: Extension Workshop on Wednesday will explore a huge range of topics to develop your skills as a teacher, for the benefit of your students’ interest and achievement.
These days will be ‘custom built’ for the teachers attending, while still containing the necessary basics for effective learning. Including Wednesday 24 Sept is an option, especially if travelling from afar, so we can do the extension topics and make the most of our time together. Thursday will be a repeat of the Tuesday program.

Hands-on in My Studio - $80.00 per day - includes use of my equipment and some fabrics, plus unlimited use of my colours and paints. A very short ‘To Bring’ list will be sent to you when you register.
Via Zoom - all workshops are FREE to attend. A PREP LIST for all workshops will be sent when you register, in plenty of time to get your gear together. If you have our LR colours, there’ll be nothing else to buy. You’ll have everything you need at home.
REGISTRATION - contact me soon by phone or email. With just six people per session, these are sure to book out quickly.
