Modern quilt teacher and patterns
One of my goals this year, now that we’re back in Australia, is to get some patterns printed and into stores. I’ll be honest – it’s a little scary taking a Big Step like this, but it’s exciting too!

As someone for who a core quilting philosophy is “make it your own”, it just made me so proud to see you guys do just that! So… Read More

Sew Cute Tuesday is the part of the week where we all share what we’ve been working on over the past week! I’ve been working on a bit of secret sewing with HSTs,… Read More
Several of you were pretty keen to hear about The Modern Medallion Workbook, and I’m pretty keen to share it with you! Medallion quilts are something I’m yet to dabble in beyond a couple of play times in EQ7. But they’re something I’m definitely wanting to try soon, once I decide I have the time and effort to commit to… Read More
