Creative & Designer
Ana Buzzalino is a textile artist and surface designer whose work explores colour, texture, memory, and the stories materials hold. Combining her own hand-dyed fabrics with vintage linens, lace, and other found textiles, she creates art quilts and slow-stitched textile books that celebrate the beauty of materials, the passage of time, and the art of making by hand.
Workshops & Lectures
Ana has been teaching quilting and textile arts since 1986. Today, her workshops and lectures focus on hand stitching, art quilting, surface design, monoprinting, fabric dyeing, and mixed-media explorations. Through hands-on classes and engaging presentations, she encourages participants to experiment with materials, explore new possibilities, and develop their own creative voice.
