Announcing our line up of incredible tutors for the Sydney Quilt Show, 2024! Luke Haynes is coming from the USA as our international tutor.

A chance encounter with a box of fabric remnants first sparked his quilting imagination. Luke’s first quilt, measuring an incredible 7’ x 10’, led him through years of experimentation and improvements over the years he has been quilting. Luke uses reclaimed materials from the communities he works with in his projects to speak with the textile language of the area.

Details and bookings for Luke’s workshops are available now at the QuiltNSW website. Stay tuned for the reveal of rest of our star tutors.
