Geode QAL: Christmassified!

I was chatting the other day with a friend about how the Geode QAL finishes in plenty of time before Christmas, and she was glad as it meant she could use this quilt along as the motivation to make a quilt for her in-laws for Christmas. The conversation flowed on, but I’m sorry, Jane, I […]

Announcing the Geode Quilt Along

Yes indeed, you read that correct! I’m thrilled to announce that next month, we will be having a Geode quilt along. Will you join us?! Geode is my latest quilt pattern, and it’s a fun and effective design that’s also fat quarter friendly. For my original quilt, I used a fat quarter bundle of Eureka […]

Liberty Liberty Liberty

It’s been an exciting week of Liberty around these here digs! Last week, I placed my first order online at Liberty London when I read somewhere that they had a new lot of fabrics on super sale (aka 50% off). What this means is that instead of around AU$50/m for local Liberty, it works out […]

Cog And Wheel Quilt with Denyse Schmidt

Over the weekend, I had the incredible opportunity to attend a class with Denyse Schmidt.

This was just before my birthday, so I not so subtly suggested to my husband that this would be […]

Every now and then, I get to design a pattern to accompany my Maths & Methods column in Make Modern. Issue 18 is now out, my column is all about make four flying geese at a time, aka no-waste flying geese. It’s such a quick method to make lots of flying geese that it meant […]

Girt By Sea Quilt Progress

If a blog post could be summed up in one action, it would be me pumping my fists with a loud “Yeah, baby!” And that’s because I got all caught up on my Girt By Sea quilt, making three borders in one month. Amidst flu-ridden kids (and one’s resulting ear infection) that kept me on […]
