Month: February 2010

February has just flown by and I have been busy finishing all the projects for The Quilted Crow's Autumn gathering on March 27th.

I can only give you a few snippets…..that seems to be the story of my life at the moment…working on too many secret projects…..I promise I will have something else soon….

and this photo is from a project that will be in Country Threads Magazine…not too sure when but I will let you know when the mag is out!

I have used the gorgeous Cottage Garden threads , so nice to stitch with.

finally…you must go over and visit Cubby House Crafts who has made a project from my book and I am stoked!!! It looks fabulous made with a Simple Abundance jelly roll.

have a great weekend everyone!!

You know how much I love this fabric and since I had some leftovers, I thought I would make another quilt…..(sad to say I don't have much left now!!)

This one has some cute little robins (all stitched in red of course!!) and some hearts too.

it is called 'petite red robins" and will be out soon…ask at your local shop or look online…stockists are on the left…..

Hope you like it!!!

Cheers
Gail

Hi and thanks for all the lovely comments on my new 3 patterns. The winners are

Michelle in Murrumbeena – Provence

Liz Schaffner – My Sweet Home

Julie Dempster – Love in a mist

so if can email me please I will post them asap!!!!!

Homespun came yesterday in the post and here is my block for the BOM "life is a celebration"

I was well into my "basket" theme when asked to do this block so it was easy to come up with this.

And also in this issue……a review of my book "Baskets in Bloom"…along with Rosie's book "A Stitch in Time"

very exciting……..I have made an album on the left side at the top so you can see all the projects in the book……have you got yours yet?

Your favourite patchwork shop will have it (or can get it for you!!!)

Back to the machine to finish a project for a mag……..

see you soon

Cheers
Gail

I released a couple of new patterns last year and am only just getting around to a give away!!!!

First is Provence

second is My Sweet Home (you may have seen this on some blogs as it was part of the "stitchery club" from Under the Mulberry Tree)

and third is Love in a Mist

So leave a comment and I will draw some winners next week……

The mystery quilt I showed you a peek of a couple of weeks ago will be out in June/July in a quilters magazine……and I am excited to say it is not an Aussie one!!!
There will also be an article about Aussie designers…..you will have to wait and see who else will be in it but we are all VERY EXCITED!!!! Can't say anything else….sorry!

My block for Homespuns "Life is a celebration" will be out next week, I will post as soon as I have a copy!!

Bye for now
