Course Summary
Step into a world of colour and creativity with Playing with Colour, a one-day workshop designed to inspire your quilt-making without touching a sewing machine. This playful, hands-on course focuses entirely on the principles of colour theory—hue, contrast, saturation, and more—so you can experiment freely and discover how different colour combinations can transform your quilt designs. Through guided exercises, you’ll explore how to balance bold contrasts, create harmony, and use unexpected pairings to make your quilts visually striking. Whether you’re a beginner wanting to understand the basics or an experienced quilter looking to refresh your design palette, this workshop gives you the confidence to make daring colour choices—risk-free! By the end of the day, you’ll have a toolbox of ideas, swatches, and mini designs that will inspire your future quilt projects and give you a new perspective on working with colour.

Sheena Roberts
Hi, I’m Sheena Roberts
Experienced quiltmaker, teacher & pattern designer
I am so excited to see you here. I hope that you find the information you are looking for, but if not – just drop me a message. Beginner or experienced seamstress, I believe that everybody can learn to quilt.
Whether you are new to patchwork and quilting, or looking to extend your skills, you are bound to find something of interest here.
I didn’t start off being a confident seamstress, in fact, I was all but thrown out of the class at school but I had someone who did not give up on me – and that has influenced me and I want to “pass that forward” – so let’s work together and make the world altogether more piece-ful.
