Some exciting news to share, in what seems a whole nuther life ago i was asked to make a quilt for the beautifully lovely clever and crafty Kathreen Ricketson from WhipUp.
It went something like this.....
Kathreen: "Hello there would you like to make a quilt for my new book?"
Me: "Me? (yes i know it looks like i said that twice sorry) well yes i would thanks for asking".
What followed was about 6 weeks of solid stitching, tiny hand sewn needle turn applique... it darn nearly killed me!
Pop Wreath was born with a fair amount of swearing and tears, which when i discovered that it had been sent to some Amish ladies for quilting made me giggle.Im sure it was cleansed of its manic 'colorful' making.I am so thrilled that i could be a small part of this fantastic new book, its lovely with loads of great quilts and how toos, you can order your copy here.
I would and not just cause im in it (but i would say that wouldn't i;)
Right back to sanity restoring stitches, no swearing this time i promise ;)
love fi xx
