Interested?...what do the Collective Stitchers feel about their experience?

“During the Dionne’s online courses, students from all over the world share their work and build virtual friendships….this exhibition builds on the camaraderie of learning and stitching together and allows others to enjoy the works produced by students across the globe.….” Maggie Rastall [UK]

“It’s hard to express yourself when English isn’t your first language but I just want to say that I’m so impressed about your efforts Dionne making this come true. You are a great teacher and I hope to be one of your students again soon. So thank you!” Eva Albrektsson [Sweden]

As the group gathers I will contact you all collectively and set up a secure place for us to chat and support the development of your work.
