What is Coast to Coast

This is an event held every second year in the Wellington region. A day long event for quilters from all over the region and New Zealand to show and tell, shop, share, laugh and learn together. This year's event is proudly hosted by Capital Quilters.

Our Guest Speaker, Robyn Burgess

Robyn Burgess will be giving an entertaining and informative talk about Japanese quilts and buying trips to Japan.
Robyn has been quilting for over 25 years and has taught at a number of New Zealand Quilt Symposia as well as Wellington, Auckland and nationally for 20 years. She has exhibited in Auckland on an annual basis and has won awards including one at a national Symposium.
Robyn travels to Japan about once a year to source new ideas, fabrics, bag handles and notions. At our Coast to Coast event this year Robyn will be speaking about her trips to Japan and old Japanese textiles, along with a demonstration on Sashiko quilting.
