Hello all, here’s a recent scrap fabric project I finished! This was also my entry in the Umbrella Prints Trimmings Challenge. When I first heard about the contest I thought ‘what a great idea’! Anyone who’s followed this blog for a while will know that I love scrap fabric projects – especially on the micro …
I’m pleased to show you my latest quilt finish. This is the Go West quilt. I had a great time using Carolyn Friedlander’s Doe fabric to make this one. The line has a fun mix of low volume fabrics as well as some lovely saturated colours. I think that the sage green is my favourite so …
It’s that time of year again – quilt market time. It’s a tad too far to travel for this Australian, but thank goodness for Amy at Amy’s Creative Side who hosts the Blogger’s Quilt Festival. We can enter the contest and enjoy all the brilliant quilts without leaving the comfort of our homes (or even …
A rail fence quilt pattern. Or is it a fence rail quilt pattern? I’ve seen it both ways and I’m confused! I had another finish this week – this time a lap-sized (60″ x 66″) quilt. I’m calling it Off the Rails as it uses the rail fence quilt block, but in random placement/orientation in …

Just dropping in to let you know Bonjour Quilts has had a little freshen-up the past few days, so if you’re seeing this through a feed you should pop over and have a look around. Tell me what you think! (A big thank you to Teresa of The Simpler Web for the new look.) I’ve …
A rectangle log cabin quilt pattern tutorial. Earlier this year, on instagram, I noticed there was a #scrappylogcabinQAL and a movement to #sewmystash2015. I had been stashing sunny yellow fabrics for almost a year to make my daughter some sort of quilt. Why not combine the two hashtags and sew my daughter a log cabin …
In my last post I introduced you to my latest pattern, Gather ‘Round, which was made with solid fabrics. I think this quilt pattern looks great in solids. It has a bit of that midwestern style to it. For something different, I decided to make a version in print fabric, too. This version is …
