This is appealing to me, do you think it’s because I’m a child of the 70′s? Link to project.

Amy’s new collection – LOVE – is a heady mix of a pretty florals and ethnic architectural designs – inspired by her recent adventures in Indonesia and England. The colours are rich, hot and tropical – with more dark colours – blacks and navys than we have seen with Amy’s collections before.

I have recently discovered and fallen for the simple creaminess of her solids collection which perfectly offsets her earlier suites of fabrics. I hope there is a solid range coming out to accompany LOVE.

whipup roundup

Am a little late with this weeks newsletter – but a quiet sunday morning is the perfect chance to catch up with whats been happening this week. It seems I am ridiculously busy with too many projects on the go at once + my boy has been begging for a new quilt, so somehow that has become top priority – we had some fabric printed with his drawings a while ago so I think this is the perfect project to use it for – will post results when done. Yesterday I spent a lovely afternoon sewing next to my daughter – she made a soft felt block of chocolate and I made an afternoon quilt (well half made anyway), then we sat down to read some harry potter and do some crochet.

In other quilt news I am organising a 65 roses quilt for charity – find out how you can participate here.
