A little adventure

I have long been an admirer of Marg Sampson George from Australia and this week I am going to meet this talented lady who is teaching all week at Cowslip Workshops in Cornwall. It is a wonderful opportunity.

This book is a great read and another hit from the Quiltmania team. It is full of hints and tips to help you organise your stash and how to use it and it is full of wonderful quilts to make.

 

My stash has been plundered, arranged, rearranged, added to and bits taken out and packed into a box big enough to make 10 quilts. Still I keep asking myself if I have enough. There is certainly colour but this is also about pattern and scale. Hopefully there will be something in there that will interest Marg to have a play. I am told she likes to play with other people's stashes.

 

Stay tuned for progress reports. There is still time to come and join in the fun.

Happy Stitching

  6. It all sounds very exciting and take it from me that it doesn't matter how much fabric you have you always needs just something a little different. Enjoy the challenge of working with your selection and I will certainly be looking forward to seeing some results. Have lots of fun.
