I love to start by choosing the central fabric which can showcase nice large patterned design as you will need 10″ square of it. You can then use the same fabric…

Welcome to my UKQU world…
Four years ago I made a Facebook group to fill a void. A void where quilters sewed alone, we needed to moan about rising cotton prices and find out which fabric shops are still going. S…

Thank you, loving the site…plus it’s good to know my small pile of UFO’s are not that extreme yet hahahaha.

The site is looking great. Looking forward to all the new developments.

Well done Juliette, getting one finished, albeit by someone else, is a starting point. Also well done with the website. Little acorns and all that.
-
Great intro Juliet, yes you have lots to finish, I know I have seen the boxes lol. Looking forward to your next one. The website is such a good resource centre for us all.
It is great to see your dream is coming true, through you I have found some amazing friends, which includes you at the top. -
I love the orange quilt Juliet – traditional with a twist of citrus! You really must finish it.
-
And thankgoodness you did. Or none of ys would be able to see lovely things like these!

These tops are fantastic Juliet, you must finish them when you can. And thank you for starting up this site in time for when I began my quilting journey, it’s been a treasure trove of information, advice and the wow factor for me.

Hello
I’ve just finished a project I’ve been busy on and I am very interested in your lovely bom, do you have a fabrics requirements list if I want to use my own fabrics?-
Hi Sarah, yes, there’s a requirements list for the Mystery BOM. 12 different fabrics, with a guideline to colouring that cross to the colours I’ve used, but obviously you can do a completely different mix.
Each monthly pattern has a ‘Key’ to indcate which of your fabrics to use where instead of my choice.
You can purchase the block patterns at your own pace via my UKQU shop. I still have a couple of kits available for each month if you wanted to use the Mackower fabrics as I have.
Many thanks! Ab x

Simply place a small piece of paper under the fabri…

Love your intro and quilts, especially Postcards from Sweden. I’ve popped that into my basket a few times. Just never got around to paying or it. 🙂

Thank you, you should get it. It is not a quick thing to do and you have to use a lot of sticky labels, but well worth the effort.
