Fireplace for Christmas
Fireplace at Christmas

As usual the Fireplace here at Quilters Cottage was decorated for Christmas

and there seems to be a lot of lights around this year.

We have really liked the sparkle!

Hope everyone is having a lovely Christmas and

We hope the New Year is good to you all!

Best wishes and Thank you to all those who have shown interest in

the inspiration at Quilters Cottage and my customers.

See the video I have up loaded to Utube

on what to do with your treasured Christmas Cards.

I have been working hard on orders for Christmas as people are realising

how close it is getting and quilts take time.

This is one of the Quillos I am selling at the Gallery.

By the way is it “quillow or quillo?”

Shibori Indigo Workshop

July 14th, 2010
Shibor Indigo Samples

Shibor Indigo Samples

At the weekend I went over to Rockland Allsaints to Marion Baker’s studio.

Here Marion and Sally Mills showed us lots of different Shibori techniques.

Once the Indigo vats were mixed, left to stand, we then dipped our fabrics.

We had a lovely day with lunch in the garden.

We had to leave our samples wrapped up for a few days to cure

and these are mine, unwrapped, washed and drying on the line.

I am really pleased with the results.

Thank you so much,

Marion and Sally so much for a lovely workshop.

Blue,Green Quillo

Today I finished the quillo for the pattern instructions for download which will be available soon.

I am also teaching a quillo course in the Autumn, so will be using this quillo as a demo.

I love the colours of this ‘quilt that folds into a cushion’.

That is why it is called a ‘Quillo’.

I have used my own dyed fabrics and purchased materials.

To see other quillos double click on the pages on the right
