October Liberty Society – EPP Hacks for the Lazy Quilter
If you're like me, and I know some of you are...you love sewing things by hand, but you don't just love hand piecing for the sake of it. If I can find a quicker way to sew a seam accurately, then I will. I recently realised that the Mrs Bennett blocks that I'm sewing...
Naughty or Nice Quilting – Which Team Are You On?
Why do you quilt the way you do? What are your preferred methods, rituals and processes? We all have assumptions with our sewing knowledge that we often just take for granted. We get so used to the way we do things, that it’s completely normal for us. Sometimes the...
Tilda Old Rose – The Making of an Heirloom
I was delighted to receive this next collection of Tilda Old Rose a few months ago. This fabric evoked a strangely strong reaction in me. It felt like going back to a long ago forgotten time, where the pace of life was slower, the colours warmer and richer, and...
September Liberty Society and Pemberley Progress
Welcome to another month of Pemberley progress and your Society chip update. To say I'm in love with this project is an understatement. I might be slightly obsessed and stalking my Liberty stash for ideas for the next block! I never realised how addictive this...
One Pouch Six Ways – Introducing Queen Bee Fabric
How do you feel about bugs? I'm probably the same as the average person...bugs are ok in their own environment, and can even be fascinating in their own way. I like them to stay in the garden or in a photograph and not invade my personal space... But bees, on the...
Mini Cathedral Window Pincushion – Do You Love a Quick Pinnie?
It's no secret that I adore a miniature of almost anything. In Australia at the moment, Coles is running their Little Shopper promotion, where you can collect tiny grocery items when you purchase. Judging by their popularity with both kids and parents, it's clear that...
August Liberty Society and Some EPP Tips for Pemberley
Today I'm talking about EPP - my Pemberley EPP to be precise. And if you're still clueless, EPP is the acronym for 'english paper piecing', and Pemberley is the block of the month quilt project from Ava&Neve and Duckadilly that I was just beginning in last month's...
July Liberty Society and Pemberley Beginnings
There's something totally delicious about the beginning of a new project! My Pemberley quilt has finally arrived, and I'm already planning and plotting my design. I'm a bit of late starter with this epic English Paper Pieced quilt, but I'm so excited to finally be...
Diamond Cathedral Pincushion Tutorial
I love to share a cute bit of sewing to brighten your day, and who couldn't enjoy the flash and bling of an easy cathedral window design? If you've seen traditional cathedral window designs made, you might remember that they use a large amount of fabric that...
Gift Exchange – A Celebration of the Magic of Christmas (in July!)
Do you remember that excitement as a child, of the night before Christmas? The only night that was second (possibly!) to the eve of your birthday, when you couldn't sleep with anticipation? There were so many things to look forward to, but there was just something...
Tilda Plum Garden and My First Cathedral Window
I'm very honoured to be included in the Tilda Plum Garden Makers Showcase, sponsored by 2GreenZebras. I feel like this range is a return to some of the original roots of the first Tilda collections with soft, muted colours and tiny florals. I've long been a fan of...

I love a week when happy mail arrives, don't you?? A wonderful bundle of Liberties landed in my studio the other day thanks to Ava&Neve! This assortment of pretties has been recoloured by Robyn of The Strawberry Thief, and the range of bright colours is just so...
New Baby Love – Peekaboo Patch Pillow
Last month I became an auntie again to a new baby girl...and this baby has been so special. She's helped to heal the heartaches of the past, and fill the lives of those around her with joy. When hope had faded, she made a surprise appearance into the world. And her...
