Another Cover.....

I squealed so loud in the newsagent today that people looked around to see what was happening...
 
My quilt, Daisy Mae, is on the cover of the latest Quilters Companion !!!
It was totally unexpected. I knew it was going to be a project in this issue but not on the cover...
 


 
This fabric is one of the Denyse Schmidt ranges from Spotlight.
 
After a really crappy end to last year, this year is starting off with a bang. I am really excited about what's in the pipeline for this year. The journey continues....
 
Happy Quilting

I'm Published...

...in Australian Homespun Magazine....Woohooo!!!!


This is the first of four magazine contributions this year. I'm very excited about it !!!
 I was so excited when I did it that I forgot to take proper photos of it....

Last November I got a call from Catherine, the editor of Homespun, asking if I would like to make a quilt for an upcoming issue. "OF COURSE!!" So I went about designing a quilt. Catherine had asked that I make it out of "Ruby" by Bonnie & Camille.


This is the design I came up with. A double pinwheel made from 2 1/2" strips and a background colour (white)


Meet "Ruby Rose"...
 I just love the styling in this photo. I want that house to put my quilt in...




I quilted it with an all over floral...

A couple of photos taken with my phone...

I really enjoyed making this quilt and I hope you do to. This issue is available in store now and I will have the pattern available in about 8 weeks.

Happy Quilting
