Hello!

We have had a beautiful long summer here in NZ and now this week there is the first chill in the air ...winter is just around the corner...

Our dog Aatu has left us for an extended stay with the breeder who is looking to breed from him. He is enjoying his harem of 4 bitches even though they are putting him in his place & teaching him to have some manners...

Our old girl (Elli shown below) is enjoying piece & quiet without him and loves getting our undivided attention...

What's New on my Site?

I have just added a shop to my site - you can find it on the nav bar.

It is where I have placed all my patterns and where I will be adding all future patterns that I write.

At this stage I have decided to make all the paid patterns the same price... US$2.99

Below those are the free patterns I have created. Some of these are templates only and others are single page quilt patterns.

What Next?

Currently I am working on redoing the first felt Christmas tree I made 4 years ago. It is conical in shape and will be covered in velcro fabric like the one above... I hope to have this finished by the end of this month and be able to add the pattern soon after.

When the conical tree is finished it will be back to quilting.

The 2 quilts that I'm going to work on first will be...

Alice in Wonderland....

and

Day of the Dead....

For each of these quilts I will be writing patterns and adding them to my site....

Free Pattern
