This was brilliant Jude – provided some much needed hilarity and solidarity (my printer decided to do something similar just before I needed to print all the handouts for Festival of Quilts teaching – do you think they have decided to get together just to spite us?)

A really useful blog, Chris – so often the same units are hiding away, and breaking the structure down makes it much easier to work out how to make it

I like the shirt bag – specially the pocket for a shopping list!

Thank you!

So many memories in our stash of fabrics

Thank you – I enjoyed imagining my quilts in their former existence!

A lovely story – quilting has indeed been a comfort in a dark world for so many this year

Thanks Maggie – yes, I must agree that I don’t personally find colour wheels very helpful

I learnt so much from Harriet Hargreaves books too!

A really interesting blog. Those distinctive colour names are useful to help me remember a particular colour of fabric that I am searching for.

I also use storage boxes for my fabric, separated into rough colour families. We deliberately bought a metal framed bed so that I could store the boxes underneath – keeps them out of the light to avoid fading

Glad you found it helpful, Maggie – we can always pick up new tips, no matter how long we have been doing patchwork.

Good on you for going digital, Sheena!
