Welcome to Pat's Pieceful Quilting website. Pat
Nicholls is a quilt-maker who lives in Burnham-on-Sea and
runs workshops and talks around the country on about just about every aspect of Patchwork and
Quilting.
Pat has been teaching Patchwork and Quilting for over 25 years, running her
own day workshops and residential weekends, and workshops for groups in various parts of the
country. She also taught a Patchwork and Quilting class for adults at
Weston College for five years.
As well as lecturing in Britain she has been the guest speaker at several
events in the United States, and taught workshops in France and Spain. She was
one of the Founder members of the Quilters’ Guild of the British Isles,
finishing her ten year’s service on the Executive Council as President.
She founded Blunsdon Quilters in Wiltshire in 1978, Brixham Quilters in Devon
in 1984, and Weston Quilters in 1997; all three groups are still very active.
Pat enjoys teaching basic Patchwork and Quilting, encouraging beginners and novices to
stretch their creative skills. As well as teaching, she has also developed several unique
workshops –
some slightly quirky!
In addition to the workshops and
talks featured on this website, Pat teaches
Banner Making to church and school groups, and facilitates meditation, scripture
and discussion sessions, based on patchwork and quilting.
Pat also has a collection of children's books about quilting, see her
