Catherine-Marie Longtin is a French-Canadian quilt-maker and textile artist based in South East London. Her work explores the relationship between textiles, colour theory, and minimalist abstract art, with her log cabin quilts particularly celebrated for their unique composition and restrained palette. Catherine's work has been exhibited across the UK and is sold through fairs, commissions, and exhibitions. She brings a warm, thoughtful, and contemporary approach to traditional patchwork techniques in her teaching.

Our classes are non refundable. Due our small class sizes it is very difficult to transfer your booking to a different date. If you cannot attend a class and are able to notify us at least two weeks before the class starts, it may be possible to change the date* but this is not guaranteed so please give us as much notice as possible to increase your chances. *Limited to one change only.

In the event that we need to cancel a class, we will provide as much notice as possible and offer either a full refund or an alternative booking date.

At Ray Stitch, we'd love to welcome stitchers of all ages, but to ensure the best learning experience for everyone, we're unable to accommodate anyone under 12 in our workshops.

Young people aged 12-16 are very welcome in our classes but must be accompanied by a responsible adult (18+) throughout the entire session. The accompanying adult must book and pay for their own space in the class and participate alongside the young person. Students aged 17 and over can attend classes independently.

If you're planning to book for a young person, we recommend emailing us first so we can help guide you to the most suitable class for their age and experience level.
