Kat’s Open Studio during Carnival Week

Textile artist, Kat Adams, of 7 Crestview Crescent, Blue Mountain Heights will open her quilt studio to visitors during Carnival of Flowers week. Opening hours are 10-4pm Friday 20th to Friday 27th September.

Kat’s open studio is part of the Quilt, Stitches and Textile Trail which includes the Toowoomba Quilters annual quilt show among other embroidery, spinning and weaving and textile art displays at various locations around Toowoomba.

Kat has been quilting and stitching for over 25 years and has produced prize winning quilts, as well as quilting for others on her long-arm quilting machines. Some of her quilts made over the years will be on display, and she will be demonstrating how she makes her colourful and funky bags, runners and cushions. Husband Geoff will demonstrate the long-arm quilting process as well. Quilts and crafted items will be available for purchase. Admission is via a gold coin with all proceeds going to support Lifeflight. Self serve tea and coffee will be available and there is ample street parking and limited on-site disabled parking.

Woodford Folk Festival captured in quilt

This a wall hanging called “Free” made by Kat of KoolKat Quilting based on photo taken at Woodford Folk Festival by Geoff Adams.  The quilt captures the spirit of “The Republic of Woodfordia” and features free motion quilting and skilful toning of fabrics.

The quilt will be part of Kat’s exhibition at her studio during Carnival of Flowers week as part of the Quilts, Stitches and Textiles Trail.
