They look great.
Just read your interview in the latest patchwork profi (in german), it had pictures of similar quilts.
Love your journal quilts. The dark borders compliment the work well and make for a very artistic cohesive statement.
Absolutely wonderful. I just love these journals.
Thank you all very, very much, so kind.
Margeeth, I haven't got the copy of Patchwork Professional yet - but I'm very excited, because it's the first time a magazine has done a profile on me.
For those of you who see me at The Festival of Quilts, do ask me about the magazine I carry around at all times ;O)
I'll look out for you next week Mai-Britt. I'm going Friday and Saturday.
Love the colours and textures. Look forward to meeting again at FOQ (I think I've come a long way since last year!)
And I'm looking forward to seeing the magazine!
Oh, great Julie, last year was sort of "oh hi, there you are" - hope to get to know you better this year...... Friday I'll be at the Tombola 2-4pm and Sat I have some lectures late afternoon. Do get in contact!
Dear Sandra,

Wiw these are lovely, I love the layering of fabric then sewing on top which you have done here,thankyou for showing us these images they have given me some ideas what to do with my scrap pieces of fabrics, mainly treasured fabric from car boot sales and charity shops from gorgeous indian saris.

just revisited your blog. your work is such an inspiration. i love how you set creative goals ..... and follow through!
Thanks Pat, very kind.
It was so fun to see how excited you were about your prize. WELL DONE! I am so glad for you. Thanks so much for being so brave to enter the quilt...and thanks to who ever was brave enough to chose it. It helps to make the way for others.
If you have still not found the name of the presenter, it is Margaret Walker who is from City and Guilds. She is (or was) in charge of the Creative Studies area of the City and Guilds. (like P+Q, fashion, soft furnishing, etc.)
All the best.
Sandy
