Beautiful sunny day, been for a walk and now settling down in the garden in the shade with a cup of tea and a beautiful book I received from a dear Quilty friend to mark my birthday. I haven't seen it before and it's FABULOUS!
Called The Gentle Art of Quilting by Jane Brockett
Beautifully set out. Lots of interesting notes about fabric, quilts, quilting, backings etc. at the start of the book.
Each project was inspired by a flower or artifact and the Projects are beautifully set out.
For instance:
TULIP FIELD
One more to whet your appetite!
AMARYLLIS
Just before I put the kettle on.......... here's a photo of the gorgeous bag another Quilty friend made me, showcasing various Kiwiana fabrics as Candy knows how much we love New Zealand!
Off to sit and read and get inspired to make even more quilts!
Have a Happy Day!
