I ran a ‘NAME THOSE QUILTS’ competition a little while ago in which I gave a pink and a blue quilt, a girls and a boys name of my choosing. I gave a series of clues as to the names they had and waited for the guesses to come in! The quilts were won...

Before this little boy was even born, it was clear he was going to be a Leicester City fan whether he liked it or not! Therefore I wasn’t at all surprised when I was asked to make a quilt that incorporated his Dad’s team colours and favourite sport…what was a little more difficult was...

I made another photo frame recently, without any wording or theme, instead I picked a colour scheme and used a lot of textile applique and buttons to finish it off. I have a room full of fabric and accessories so I thought ‘why not use them?’ I think they make an interesting contrast once...
