It’s a very American book. Uber American lol. The group of women are obviously diverse in order to provide a variety of stories. I’m not sure what the prevalent theme is; the quilts, the Bunco, the food, the stories, they all seem to get equal time. Bunco seems to be something like Yahtzee and they seem to be making mostly traditional quilts.…[Read more]

Juliet Nice wrote a new post, Flying Geese Ruler Review, on the site UKQU 6 months ago
There are many methods for making flying geese, but the most common mistake is in the working out the sizes of the blocks to use. At first glance you would use corner blocks half the size of the main block, but as…
-
The Maths for this block are tricky. I even bought a book about it that didn’t help! I can see the ruler would be great.
-
I have avoided flying geese until now because all of the sensible methods I could see were either a) too hard or b) too wasteful. This ruler appears to eliminate both.
Oh dear – my bank balance!
Thanks for the clear description.

I bought my first June Taylor strip ruler 20 years ago on QVC! That one has since broken in two through much use. I have three more now, including the 1/4″ slot version. I use them almost exclusively now, my other rulers rarely get much ‘screen time’

I was wondering why my quilt was in a blog lol. It’s beautiful, not as good as mine obviously (heeheeheee) but great for a teenage boy. Mine went to my teenage boy’s girlfriend as he asked nicely x

Juliet Nice wrote a new post, Painted Lupin, on the site UKQU 11 months ago
I love lupins. They grew in our garden when I was little and I would pick the petals off and manipulate then like they were little mouths. I don’t think I’d seen one in years until a recent chance sighting at a B&M…
-
Love the softness that the paints give. I can imagine a quilt using blocks just like this. Just a gorgeous design x
-
The soft colours make that look fabulous. I put Lupins in my garden this year . Love it x
-
Really original, and full of possibility. Lupins are a weed in New Zealand: I wish our weeds were as colourful!
-
Love it x
