Noel

Check out the Festive Issue of "A Needle Pulling Thread" magazine to see the newest design from Nellie and I called "Noel". We used the "Happy Christmas" fabrics that we received from Northcott to make a tablerunner (or wall banner) and placemats. They are super easy and would make great gifts!!!

Our friend Linda Scallion also has a project in this issue! Her "Winter Window" wallhanging is just beautiful!!The magazine should be available soon at quilt shops and book stores near you!

Lime on the Rocks

Here is my second new quilt design called "Lime on the Rocks" which uses Northcott's new "Shades of Grey" Stone Roll. This collection features twelve different fat quarters of grey fabrics gradated from very light to almost black. I used their new lime coloured Stonehenge fabric to make the inner border pop but you could use any colour that would match with your decor - maybe bright orange, fuchsia or wine red - use you imagination!
The pattern will be available soon at a quilt shop near you or online at Fairfield Road Designs !!

Quilt Retreat

Well, I'm almost all packed and ready to go to the Quilt Retreat in Morrisburg!!! This year, my mom is coming with me and I'm looking forward to spending lots of time quilting and visiting with her and all of my quilting friends! I have a few projects to work on, two that I started at the last retreat (and never finished) and one for Christmas. Hopefully I will get lots done and be ready to quilt some quilt tops when I get home!
