Tiger Tiger Table Mat
Sewing World Magazine had a special feature this month featuring justhands-on.tv and the Tiger Tiger Table mat, from the Helen Howes pattern for Oakshott Fabrics. This simple table mat can be made in no time at all and is very efficient on fabric usage; it takes just two, fat eighth pieces of fabric to create the
pieced top on one mat.

Accomplishments
Janet wrote to show us her quilt - she's very proud of her accomplishment. She retired at 61yrs and thought she would try her hand at patchwork. This is the second quilt she made. She told us "it's not perfect as you can see but an accomplishment I never thought possible." We think it's a fantastic accomplishment and a lovely choice of colours too.
