Libby's Mystery Quilt

The finished quilt. 

Size approx 65" square. 

Photo shows Libby's original design. 

My finished quilt will hopefully be shown in a few months. I am currently working on block 6. 

My fabrics are as near to Libby's as possible, and in some cases are identical.

Pattern set: $110.00

Kits: $43.20 per stage (x10)

Kits include everything for the quilt top and binding as well as threads, buttons, fusible web and lace. Some braids/Ric racs are also included. Doilies are not included. My kits have pieces cut approx 1/2" bigger than the required size for both the piecing and applique. Detailed checklists are provided for fabrics and threads. The first stage has a color coded sheet to assist with fabric placement for piecing. 

Country Tea Party

Libby Richardson's beautiful stitchery BOM pattern is now available. 

I am offering my first batch of patterns at the special price of $110.00 with no p&h within Australia. 

This Bom has 10 patterns with  the finished quilt being approx 68" square. 

Libby's Mystery Block 5

The next block in this beautiful mystery- see earlier post for full details.

Libby's Bear Mystery BOM

Libby's (from Art Smart Craft Cottage) Bear Mystery 
I ( from today) have the first four stages of this quilt in pattern form. These are also the only patterns I have knowledge of.

Pattern set price: $132.00 which includes p&h within Australia. To be posted at the end of each month
Kit price: $43.20 per stage* This price will only be valid until mid July

My kits will contain all fabrics for quilt top and binding, weaveline for the embroidered backgrounds,fusible web, embroidery threads, laces (not doilies) and buttons #.
 # I am really not sure of buttons either, but have been prepared to take a gamble that a similar number ( or less) will be used in future blocks.
The kits will contain braids and trims where I use them, but in some cases where raw edges are not easy to contain, I have preferred (and opted for) additional embroidery instead of braids.
I cannot include doilies as it is still an unknown as to how many and what variety may be in the various stages, and I therefore may not be able to supply all that is needed.


I am making my sample as near to the colors that Libby has used, although Libby told me she has used many scraps for her quilt,  so there would be little likelihood of having exactly the same fabrics in every instance, but I do have some the same, and some very similar.

Hopefully I will remember to post the other 3 covers tomorrow....need to bring them home from the shop  to do so.

Libby's Mystery Quilt

Coming soon- 
Libby's (from Art Smart Craft Cottage) Bear Mystery 

Stage 1 pattern arrived late Feb.
Please let me know asap if you would like this as a pattern or kit, as I am sure this is going to be a winner !!!!!
Prices  and kit details will be published as soon as  I have all the information.
Approximate cost of pattern set (10 patterns) will be at least $100.00. Patterns ordered before March 20th can be locked in at $100.00. I have changed this from the previous date of the end of Feb due to my newsletter being quite late to notify people of this special.
Further patterns will have to have the price increased. At this stage the patterns are coming out monthly from Libby, and I am not sure whether this will continue, so the $100.00 price is very cheap and may not be able to be sustained with the nuerous postings required.
Stage 2 is expected at the end of March.


Note re fabrics in my kits: Price for kits should be ready by March 20th.
