If you have visited here before you know that I am rather partial to modern quilts, so of course my review of Festival of Quilts 2019 had to be about the Modern category didn’t it? In fact it really did because it…

I love seeing the back of work and had always steered clear of open seams for fear of weakening the quilt – they don’t!!

Where to begin on the journey that is improv? It can be improvisational piecing which has myriad forms or improvisational quilting which is another topic all together!
Improvise is defined as:

I love how you have used the jean pockets! Sadly I am not a fan of oven gloves – I find them much harder to use than a folded up tea towel!

Hope you enjoy it! When I got EQ7 I found it difficult to design in an alternate way so I still use paper and pencil or a design wall!!

It really is heartbreaking, but it is great to know that there is a whole load of quilters out there from all over the world ready to make quilts for comfort.

Earlier in the month I wrote about the generosity of quilters. We all know what comfort a quilt can bring and that is why so many of us quilters make for others. There are many different charities you can support t…

Wonderful but heart breaking, especially regarding the 3 children who lost their father, which you took quilts to recently. Like Abigail many of us make quilts for various charity initiatives and it gives us comfort too as well, just to make them to try to make a difference.

I saw several of your quilts there Abigail, and very nice they were too! I had a good day shopping and viewing there and it was lovely to be at the young quilters exhibit when the two girls came with their mum (I assume) after school. The younger one’s joy at finding her rosettes was really heartwarming. Great to see young quilters doing well, though I guess not many get a chance to long arm!
