Autumn Round up 2012!

I've been getting myself organised for this years Autumn Roundup in Mullewa, for those of you who don't know about Autumn Roundup...its an amazing craft event held in the little regional town of Mullewa in Western Australia. It attracts around 150 - 200 people annually, which is a big effort for an event that receives no funding and is held in a town with a population of just over 900 people. This year is its 20th year and sadly it will be its last! Over two days crafters from all over the state take part in two, one day workshops of their choice, this year the workshops are:


Deb Crothers – Peek-A-Boo brooches & pendants with Polymer Clay
Elizabeth Morley- Paint, Print & Pattern to create your own fabric.
Fiona Parker – A day of paper craft
Rachael Mc Kenzie – Silver clay for beaders and Silver Clay trinkets and charms.
Anne and Tammy  Ringrose – “Ribbon Cottage” & embroidered woollen bassinette blanket.
Erika Monique – a figurative clay sculpture
Kaye Street – “Many Trips Around the World” in a day
Carol Brady – Links Quilt using strips and point to point Diamond Quilt.
Judith Lubieniecki – Quick Cathedral Windows & Make a Bag Day

I'm using some of the skills the fabulous Kate Mckinnon taught me for the Silver clay for Beaders workshop! These are the results of a play date/test run with my mum and her friend!  I love, love, love mums golden patinaed(is that even a word) bead caps!


Here's all the components all put together into a finished piece!


The trinket and charm workshop is a little bit fiddly but I love the sense of fun 
and play when making these little babies!

  1. Rachel how sensational. I absolutely love the efforts from the "mum and friends" trial run workshop. Those goldie bead caps ARE gorgeous - you should be so proud of the group. Looks like I better get myself organised and post something on what I'm doing hey.
