Robyn came to live in Ireland from Australia 20 years ago, moving to Drumquin Co. Tyrone from Margaret River in Western Australia.

Her interest in patchwork began back in 1992. Initially self-taught, she  studied every book she could get her hands on but has since been fortunate enough to travel widely and take classes from many wonderful teachers.

About 10 years ago a local women’s group asked her to teach them patchwork and so began her career as a teacher. Since then, she owned a patchwork shop for a while and now continues to hold regular classes and teach students of all levels.
