How long have you been in Canowindra?

I came to Canowindra in 2003 to manage the Age of Fishes Museum. I travelled the Eugowra Road for 5 years before moving here. Forbes is my home town.

What do you love most about Canowindra?

The bendy main street, the history, the heritage and the art culture.

What is your occupation?

Owner/partner of Scrap Box Patchwork Designs and Fiona Ferguson Consultancy

What are your hobbies?

Patchwork and craft; chopping up perfectly good fabric into little pieces and re-joining it! I adore drawing and making patchwork patterns for retail and wholesale.

What is your favourite place in the world?

Pompeii. Magic.

If you could have dinner with anyone who would it be?

Eeyore and Winnie the Pooh.What a hoot.

If you won the Lotto, how would you spend it?

Share it with my children, sponsor Ronald McDonald House, donate to cancer research, upgrade our tired Subaru and have a holiday.

Who inspires you the most?

May Gibbs.

The biggest change you would like to see in the world?

An end to illness and for everyone to have a roof over their head.
