As I work and play and read and relax while camping, it is not all fun and games. Camping can be hot, and strenuous and sweaty and dirty and tiring too. It is not all starry nights and birds chirping, sometimes there is blaring music and noisy neighbours. However after a week of moving around, fixing broken stuff and staying in some run down sad caravan parks, we have found a little corner of paradise. Fishing is good, the weather is hot, the campsite is small and quiet, the water is lovely and we have internet — so I can catch up on emails and blogging and various things like that.
I found out through friends on twitter that my new book is now available for preorder on Amazon — very excited about this book, such a labour of love, a lot of work, a lot of sweat and tears and lot of design decisions. You can pre-order it now, or wait until September — don’t worry i’ll remind you! And i’ll talk more about the book in the months to come.

Let’s take a peek inside the book, please! I don’t even quilt and I absolutely loved your previous book. I might have to buy this one for a friend who used to knit and now almost entirely quilts.
