Stitching News

Pre-Printed quilt panels are great for practicing your quilting skills... no piecing to do, just a sandwich to make and away you go. They don't need a lot of quilting but if you go to town on it, boy does it pop the details... Christabelle quilted around every detail on this one, and now it's a fabulous and finished toot toot toot-a-bubble gifting quilt.

Princess Jackie has really enjoyed making this reading pillow. That there pocket is perfect for storing the current book of choice. There's a hidden zip too, we all know a kiddie reading pillow is destined to get grubby and need to be washed so that's very practical. Toot toot toot Jackie.

This is Rose's Autumn inspired panel. You can see she has nailed the curved piecing, there's applique, couching work and felted leaves... some liberated quilting and all... very artsy-fartsy eh!!

And Our Beano is still in full production mode... it's since she had Covid... a special and rare side affect? Let's hope it's the long version, ha! We laid out the blocks so Jean could make a list of which fabrics to use in the last few Log Cabin blocks.

I put a little reminder for you, at the top, right side of my blog, about our annual pilgrimage to the Festival Of Quilts. It really is time to pop in and pay for your seat if you will be joining us on the coach. The tickets need to be ordered soon... we get a discount for group bookings so for £35.00 you get taken there and back and you can enter, winner!
