I was a lucky girl to receive promo 10 inch squares of these two fabric ranges from Makower Fabrics; while the size of the squares were the same the number of them varied betyween the two designs, but I was still able to produce two delightful little quilts (for my Momentum charity) with a quick and easy slash quilt idea.
Sorry, the competition is now closed

Margaret contacted us in May as she was trying to remember which video she needed for one of Valerie's stack and slash quilts, as she had made one a few years ago and wanted to make another. It turned out she wanted to make Valerie's crazy patchwork quilt - which you can watch here. Margaret has got back in touch just a few weeks later and has just completed her quilt in this lovely colourway, which she has hand quilted using perle thread.
What a great day we had together with Carolyn last week and we have some really lovely workshops ready for editing; Carolyn spent the day sharing with us her 'Joy of Sewing' and we have a whole series of workshops on how to sew patchwork by hand - a great alternative to EPP and not a stitch in sight! She also showed us how to design cable quilting which you can customize for your own quilt size; there is a super quick layer-cake bag and a wonderful woven scrap quilt too (see picture below).
