 This Journal page records 2 workshops with Malcolm Harrison, a New Zealand quilter. The first Calico and Lace in 1987 (calico is Muslin in the USA)…when I first started collecting tutors signatures I put a few of them into my first crazy quilt but realized that there would be to many of them and that they would dominate the quilt and cut them out of it and when I did the second workshop with Malcolm in 1989 I knew what to do with them, the second workshop with Malcolm was Fabric Books…
I have represented the Calico and Lace workshop by doing a miniature of the project (another UFO) that I started at the workshop. The Fabric book is represented by a dedication as you might find in a book, thanking Malcolm for introducing me to fabric books….The camel is in memory of the camel hat that Malcom had at the retreat….In keeping with the Theme I have made this one up to A4 size by adding a wide lace to one side and across the top.
