It’s brand new and has only just arrived in newsagencies.

You should buy it and turn directly to page 76.

The quilt on page 76 is particularly lovely…

The lovley Louise from patternsonly.com is a wonderful supporter of Australian quilt designers. Recently she contacted me very keen to stock and promote my quilting patterns.

Today my quilts have been the feature on her website and her facebook page. I was amazed to see them there because they look so lovely!

It inspires me to get busy and design and make a whole lot more!

I just wish that every day had 28 hours…

I Got the Power

Tonight I had seven tiny bodices to stitch to seven tiny skirts.

I packed up my gear and headed to stitching. After just one bodice the power went out.

So after two hours of sitting in the dark, solving the problems of the world we all went home.

Now I have six tiny bodices to stitch to six tiny skirts…

Just Chilling

If you come to my house…

and you decide you’d like to relax…

don’t swing in the hammock

A Special Quilt

has been my recent focus.

The binding has been hand-stitched…
