In 1985, when Gay Eaton was both President of the Otago Guild and Southern Regional Education Officer for the Association of New Zealand Embroiderers’ Guilds, she had a vision of starting a weekend school bringing together New Zealand women to learn embroidery techniques and also enjoy one another’s company in the majestic surroundings of our Lakes District. This prestigious School has developed from six tutors (Jan Wilson being one of those originals) and 92 registrants in 1985, to twenty tutors and 296 registrants in 2014. Gay herself tutored on 23 occasions and chaired the organising committee for 25 years, setting in place a firm basis for the healthy future of embroidery in our region.
