A Quilters Time Out

The Quilters Net has been keeping me quite well and truly occupied of late.   From requests for specific quilts, to processing sales for members to producing newsletters (not many lately), life is well and truly full.

Many new quilts have been listed for sale and many enquiries are received daily which all require attention. 

In fairness to my Quilters Net membership, I must devote more time and energy to their needs.  Although I will continue to stop here from time to time with newsworthy items, my visits will be less frequent.   For updates and news at The Quilters Net, I encourage you to subscribe to our free newsletter here as well as following us on Facebook

I do hope you are enjoying your summer wherever you are and I look forward to all your comments. 


Many thanks for following and Happy Stitching

Double Wedding Ring Made Easy

Here's my first block in this fun workshop at  The Quilt Pattern Magazine   How much fun it is to learn a new technique for a lovely old traditional pattern.


As you can see I have utilized a dark background and lighter rings for a completely non-traditional effect.   I have not decided how big (or small) I will make the project.  Decisions such as those will be made along the way :-)

This is actually part 2 of the 5 part workshop and I am definitely looking forward to the next step.  August 1 which is tomorrow.



Hmmm........Wonder what a miniature one would look like using this technique???????
