I love a Block of the Month – I mean, I REALLY love them. I will confess to having several on the go at the moment, and one of them is Girl’s Day Out. I saw this advertised on the Villavin Crafts Facebook page, and…

Christine Hutchins wrote a new post, EPP – glue basting or thread tacking, on the site UKQU 3 months, 1 week ago
I am a bit of a sucker for different gadgets and gizmos – anything to make life a little easier. As an example, I used to find joining the ends of binding a bit tricky – until I bought the binding tool. That cer…

Christine Hutchins wrote a new post, FINISHIn praise of a word for the year, on the site UKQU 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Last year I had a word of the year for the first time – my word last year was ‘FOCUS’. This year I’ve chosen ‘FINISH’ as my word for the year.
It may seem strange to have such a word as my word for the year – a wo… -

It is a chilly early October day – well, it feels chilly to me as I’m sat here on my chaise longue in my sewing room, surrounded by fabric. That sounds very exotic and posh doesn’t it? I’m going to let you carry o…

Running a 200 Club means advertising it – and so it needed a logo.
The whip has been cracked – and it does seem a while since I last wrote a blog. I’d love to say it is due to me doing so much sewing. Howe…

Search Press describe themselves as “The world’s finest art and craft books”, and Sarah Payne’s Quilt School certainly is deserving of this description. This is an ideal book for those starting out on their quiltin…

We’re a month into the year already – well, we will be by the time you read this, it will be a month. Did you see posts about people trying to decide what their word for the year was going to be? Well, this year I d…

An admirable ideal for this jumbled year. I think mine should be “ finish”.

Good luck with your running challenges Christine. I think the word Focus is a good one to pick if you are going to be picking a word, and I wish you luck with your focusing throughout the year, maybe you can do a blog in December to let us know how you got on…

Thank you – and sorry for the late reply. I certainly had fun doing it, and it is always great when a project comes together in the way you envisaged it!

Thank you – and sorry for the late reply. I also like using scrap textiles, although I’ve recently started to question my sanity in saving and collecting all the little pieces, snippets and thread ends. I’m starting to be a little more ruthless with what I keep and what I don’t – but only after holding on to it for a while!

Celebrations blog hop
When it was suggested that the Bloggerati might like to take part in another blog hop, I thought I was prepared. I then saw what the topic was – Celebrations, and in looking at the list of s…

I’m not one to shy away from a challenge, and so I jumped at the chance to be part of the UKQU blog hop – especially when the theme was flowers. I instantly knew what flowers I would choose – tulip…

Jo Hendy has a treat (or several) in store for quilters once again. I have tried hard to limit my Block of the Month (BOM) subscriptions, and I am a little ashamed to admit that I have some still waiting for me to…

A good idea for keeping the boxes out of the light. I have quite a few of my boxes under my quilting frame.
