The Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair is back for another year at The Dome, Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park from Wednesday 28th of June 2023 to Saturday 1st of July 2023. Open from ten in the morning until 4 pm each day, the Craft and Quilt Fair in conjunction with Expertise Events will showcase a wide range of crafts, fabrics, workshops, demonstrations and classes for all ages and levels.

People who are into craft go to the show to learn new tricks and expand on their current knowledge, be inspired for new projects and to buy the latest crafting products for knitting, crocheting, quilting, papercraft, weaving, jewellery making, sewing, cross stitch, patchwork, embroidery and so many more crafts beyond this that spark the imaginations of creative people. Not only will there be exhibitors in attendance, these craft shows often offer the opportunity to purchase products you might not be able to get at your local sewing or craft shop, new fabrics and pick up tips and tricks for brush lettering, resin jewellery, and clay, as well as using a Cricut machine, and making household items such as lampshades – and many more things.
Things to do when you come to the Craft and Quilt Fair:

- Join a class!
- Have fun with daily make and takes!
- Enjoy a workshop!
- Explore Cricut crafting!
- Come and learn how to crochet!
- Attend a free seminar!

There will be a number of fabulous guests attending as well: Lorraine Uriarte, a modern quilt maker, who will have a display of her quilts and will also be running a Kuwandi quilting-style workshop on Thursday; Jo Neville from Paper Couture, who will be running workshops to make paper flowers – Paper Dahlia, which will be held on Wednesday and Paper Roses on Saturday. You can also see needlepoint artist, Natalie Fisher, see her work on display and see her demonstrate her needlepoint skills in a daily one-hour class at 11am or 2pm for $30 per class.

The Craft and Quilt Fair also incorporates a quilt competition, and this year for the second year, the Australian Quilt Show Challenge will be running, and the finalists' quilts touring the 2023 Craft and Quilt Fairs around Australia – keep an eye on the website for dates for the various fairs. Each year has a theme, and in 2023 that theme is In Full Bloom – a theme that was open to interpretation for entrants.

When you go, you should be able to pick up a guide to the fair at the front (as in past years, or check out what is happening online, see what Make and Takes or classes you want to attend, and plan your day around these events. The guide and website will also breakdown the various events and classes for each day. And there will also be a range of retailers to explore and purchase from each day, so it is worth checking out as much as you can. There is so much to do at these fairs, so they are well worth the visit.
