An Exhibition to wander round
We have started the month off with a wander round the Hope Quilters’ Exhibition that was held in Kent earlier in the year; this was a fantastic exhibition organised by Sylvia Critcher to showcase the work created (and finished!) by her students over the previous 3 years – and boy is there a lot of it! (so this is just part 1!)
Still time to make things for Christmas
As Christmas is just around the corner we thought you might like a couple of really quick ideas to help with making some wonderful woven cards (but these will be good for other occasions too) from The Stitch Witch plus a really quick last minute wall hanging decoration from Valerie.
More inspiration and workshops
Other inspiration this month comes in the form of showing you some work using patchwork as a background and we also share with you how to work a Twisted Setting for your blocks – a great idea for making the blocks all a uniform size too – as well as showing you a modern and quick way of creating the Split 9-patch block.
Your First Sampler Quilt continues
We continue with the series Your First Sampler Quilt with Blocks 5 (Prairie Queen and Jacobs Ladder) and Block 6 which is the Ohio Star block – so moving on to quarter square triangles.
New Block of the Month for next year
And we have a promotional video for the new Block of the Month series which will start in the New Year, designed and created by Jennie called ‘Superstar’; this is a medallion quilt and contains some wonderful techniques such as Seminole Patchwork and Delectable Mountains – so definitely one to look out for and we will be giving you all the fabric requirements too so that you can start shopping!
