Autumn Lights


Take the worry out of choosing your fabrics by selecting one of the new  beautifully co-ordinated fabric bundles I have put together. I have called these Autumn lights as they are not as strong as the real autumn oranges, tans and golds. They almost have an apricot quality.

The bundles have one metre of fabric, each of the 16 pieces being approx 10" 11" or 25 x 27 cm.
It is amazing what you can get out of one of these bundles and many of my quilts have started off with a fat 1/16th bundle.  e.g Old Time Bears, Old Time Gollies, Hearts and Flowers, Chocolate Bears and Counting on my Friends to name a few.
Price $26.40 or 2 bundles for $50.00

Flowerdale

Wow !!!!  Have finished this lovely quilt and just need to have it quilted.  I have always loved the combination of subtle blues and beiges, and combined with the greens and hint of browns this is truly a flavor I love.
Of course don't be limited by this color range, as I am sure it would look equally as good in reds and browns/caramels...another favorite color combo of mine.
Gail has deigned this with needle turned applique in mind, but because I am an absolute texture freak I have to do it in the hand buttonhole stitch to get that rich texture I desire.
Size: 42 x 56"
Pattern: $29.70
Kit: $148.50
The photo shows Gail's colors. Mine are very similar, but I have used a cacky green as the narrow border and will also use that as the binding. I will photograph mine early this week and pop it on for you.

Kit includes all fabrics for quilt top and binding as well as the pattern.
An additional price  of  $13.05  if you want threads and  fusible web. ( price to include 6 x DMC  hanks as a started pack- may be sufficient dependant on how and where you use the various blues and greens).
Postage and Handling included within Australia. Overseas: credit card only.


some of my blocks which I was hoping you could see the texture of the stitching...actually all the pics are a little wishy washy.
