Welcome
Joanna Kent
Editor
Ah February! The month of love! And there are so many things to love about the
second month of the year. The craziness of the festive season is starting to become a
distant memory and hopefully by now we have all paid off our credit cards as a result.
February is the month when we can at last start looking forward to lighter evenings
with hints of spring in the air and the biggest thing to love most of all….my birthday
isn’t far away!
We have some lovely projects for you this month and with February being the month
of love we have a couple of heart projects for you;
Drunken Hearts
shows you that
machine piecing curves needn’t be that scary while
Nine Patch Hearts
is a cosy wool
quilt. If you were lucky enough for Santa to bring you a new sewing machine for
Christmas, you might like to practice using all the decorative stitches on it with the
Angel Fish Mini Quilt.
More curves with the
Donut Cushion
while the
Summer Fruits
Table Runner
has foundation pieced segments.
Tablet Jazz
is a stylish tablet cover for
you and we make a further four blocks in our mini-series project,
Blooming Blocks.
Leanne Smith
Assistant Editor
If you love reading our features then we have plenty to keep you entertained in this
issue. The spring quilt show season is almost upon us so we have a preview of the
Grosvenor Spring Shows
to tempt you. Leanne went shopping to the
Quilter’s Trading
Post
recently and we take a look the
Festival of the Broken Needle
in Japan. And finally
a cautionary tale about throwing away your scraps in
Leftovers;
you never know when
they will come in useful!
Until next time
Joanna
