These photos of Carolyn's Marriage Quilt Block of the Month need little commentary!
Starting with this stunning centre.
Add a little extra.
A bit of this.
Add this.
And a master piece is on its way.
Hope you enjoyed this as much as I did!

For those of you who found the Newsletter unreadable, and it was pretty small, I am trying a link so that it will open full size.
Let me know if this is preferable. Click here to view the Newsletter for February 2013.
It will open with Preview on a Mac, but Adobe Reader would be preferable.

Time to look away if you can't help yourself with fabric - that would make you like the rest of us!
We have two colourways from the Royal Gardens Maywood Studio - selected for their stunning good looks and suitability for both borders and applique.
Oops - shocking photo - will rectify, can also see here.
And if you are feeling really giddy there are some beautiful brights from a Day in the Country. They remind me of the musk sticks we used to buy at the local pool!
Perhaps with some licorice straps thrown in.
It is quite surprising how many of these blend beautifully with our range of reproduction fabrics as well as being inspirational for modern quilts.

Carolyn must have metal tips on her fingers judging by the pace she has been working at!
Aunt Green's Coverlet just grows and grows.
The centre of Folk Art Baskets is all but together!
And last but not least some more 'bits' for the Marriage Quilt.
At this rate she will have to start some new BOM's!

The full range of Prairie Rose is now in the shop at just $19.50 per metre, and what lovely range it is!
This free project is on the Riley Blake website.
We also have, just three left, of a pre-packaged project 'One Day at a Time' that includes the pattern and fabric for a quilt top (see centre of image directly below), binding, paper pieces, templates and embroidery thread for a 54" x 64" quilt using Prairie Rose. Quite extraordinary value and a great gift at $155.60!

2013 Classes are proving popular and Irene's Clamshells class is now full.
Irene is also offering classes for 'Tulipa' and 'Botanika' on the 6th and 7th of April.
Botanika is now in the shop and it is a beautifully textural quilt, with wonderful earthy colours.
When 'Tulipa' arrives I will take some close ups of it too.
If you are interested in these classes make sure you contact the store.
