Wall of visitors' Quilt blocks

Jenny was pleased to help at The Devon Guild Quilt-it, Patch-it, Family drop-in day. There was a table that sat 10 visitors & it was full all day. There were front, wadding & backing squares, 7″ sq. ready to go & the children & adults then decorated the top by sewing on all kind on scraps. For many it was their first experience of sewing & of quilting. Many of them said they were inspired to do more.

BEACH HUT PARADE

At Strawberry Fayre we were thrilled to bits that Jenny’s quilt “Beach Hut Parade” was chosen to be included in Pam & Nicky Lintott’s new book “Jelly Roll Inspirations” published by David & Charles in October 2009. The quilt used 2 of our new Charm Rolls to complete: Mediterranean Prints & Mediterranean Plains.

All 12 quilts in the book are chosen winners from the international “Jelly Roll Challenge” & include full instructions on how to make them.

If you would like to see a copy, it was in the September 2010 issue.
