A week full of quilts for a girl and her [...]
We do love it when a plan comes together - We've heard from one of our members, Beth. She's just completed this quilt for her grandson using Janet Clare's Nocturne fabrics which we had on the site a few months ago. She's called it 'Stars and Moons'. Her grandson is a Man City fan and was really delighted with this and the Blue Moon, unbeknown to her, is their club song.
Back home, exhausted but happy after five full days at Festival helping Isa at Creative Quilting on H17 ; always great to catch up with everyone and everything and see so many wonderful quilts - and not all of them entered into the competition - there is always so much inspiration on the stands too. Sadly I failed to take a camera that had any power (!) but that didn't stop me shopping both for myself (threads and fabric) and for Justhands-on.tv !!- so keep an eye on the shop for LOTS of new products from lots of our contributors, which include Angela Daymond; Janet Clare; Lina Patchwork; Lorna Bateman; the return of Mandy Shaw and a lovely new pattern from Kjersti Smith featuring Dinosaurs.
As usual this was a fantastic event and most of our contributors were there; Jennie was busy with her own stand and Val was helping out on the Creative Quilting stand. It didn’t leave much time for wandering around to either see the quilts OR get new product but Val wasn’t to be outdone on her shopping and you need to keep an eye on the ‘shop’ for the new bits; in brief here are the highlights: Jennie has a new DVD out –Texture in Sudoku Mary Gamester has a new book – Transfer Painting Hilary Beattie has a new book – Make it Personal Janet Clare has a new book – A Field Guide – available through the shop Jane Rollason has a new book – Fun, Fast & Furious – quick & easy applique panels New patterns from Daisy Chain include: Just Peachy by Lee Brown New patterns from The Stitch Witch include new Dog House needlebox and a new hanging system for your small projects.
A bit like Christmas – so much build up and then all of a sudden it’s all over! As always though a great selection of quilts, (one from the Doughty stand) shopping (here’s the Creative Quilting stand in all its glory) and inspiration; and again as always not enough time to do it justice; Watch out for the new products that I picked up on my wanderings going up onto the site including the new book from Janet Clare; new patterns and kits from Karen Hellaby and some great new patterns from a company called ‘Kids Quilts’ Dates for next year are: 8-11 August 2013
