Sometimes I sew with a palette that’s not rainbow.

Ah who am I kidding. I totally added more colours to round this out to be more rainbow for the blocks that accompany this one 😉
🌳
These prints are from my various collections for @rileyblakedesigns and the snowy type print is @materialgirlquilts Wonderland - it’s the perfect background for this planned project.
🌳
The sweary mug is by the clever @cynthiafrenette - and such an accurate sentiment 😉

Watch this space - I’ve got a bunch more to share of this new project!

If you love to foundation paper piece, make it a little easier with getting some specialty paper. Here’s one I prepared earlier 😉
✂️
This FPP paper (sold to quilt shops near you by @rileyblakedesigns) is lightweight, thin enough to easily see your printed templates, and tears away from your seams a lot more easily than regular printer paper.
✂️
Combine this with @wonderfilspecialtythread Decobob thread and your next foundation pieced project will be an absolute breeze.
✂️
Chat to your LQS or favourite online quilt shop about nabbing some of this paper for when you next have the urge to FPP!

Look at this little cutie I found at the handmade stall at Toowoomba Quilters annual show!

My Miss 13 spotted it and it said “isn’t that your fabric Mum?” And yes, yes it is! It’s one of my favourite prints from my second fabric line Dream (for @rileyblakedesigns). So naturally this little elephant had to be purchased to add to my pincushion collection and brighten my sewing studio.

It’s taken way longer than I care to admit to finally add the binding to my In the Garden quilt! But tada! It’s done!
🌺
With Carnival of Flowers happening in my local area, I figured it was time to finish this quilt for some photos using the lovely local gardens as a backdrop.
🐝
Given it’s a little windy and overcast, the best I’ve managed for now is some snaps in my studio. But I’m determined to get some gardens photos!

Keen to make your own Garden quilt? You can find these patterns in my shop (search Garden) and get ready for bunch of foundation piecing!

@leanne_mountvincentquilts quilted this for me with an all over panto which is perfect for this quilt. It’s pretty rainbowtastic - using prints from my various collections for @rileyblakedesigns plus I added a little extra rainbow in the binding.
🐝
Now time to start planning those garden pics!

If you’re looking for some sewing themed fabric, might I cheekily point you in the direction of my current collection, Make? 😉 it’s filled with little notions, inspiring words, and all the fun things we find in our sewing rooms. Oh. And rainbow. Lots of rainbow!
✂️
You can find these fabrics in store right now. There’s a pinned post in my feed with a list of stockists - or go chat to your LQS or fave online store and ask for Make for @rileyblakedesigns . Pretty sure it’s time you sew something just for you 😉
