Modern quilt teacher and patterns
Aubrey and the girls at Southern Fabric have always entranced me with their beautiful range of fabrics, enhanced by their gorgeous photography! It really helps you feel like you’re in store in person, rather than just online! For instance, I would really love to be able to stroke Social Club – I love the circle feature print! It would make… Read More
Today’s giveaway is one from my own stash of Japanese fabrics – what would be a Blossom Heart Quilts giveaway without some of this deliciousness?! Before we moved here, I had always heard rumours of this magical material known as Japanese fabrics, but I had yet to experience them for myself. And it didn’t take me very long to realise… Read More
The Fat Quarter Shop has been a longtime supporter of Blossom Heart Quilts, and I’ve had a lot of fun collaborating with them over the past couple of years! Together, we’ve done the Having a Starry Time blog hop featuring a range of different star quilt blocks using Triangle Papers to make the HSTs, and we also ran the Sweet… Read More
It has been a big couple of months online for me!! It started with hitting the 1000 follower milestone on Instagram around the same time as this blog’s second anniversary. And then last month as the blog reached the first year mark of being here on WordPress, I also hit the 1000 followers on Bloglovin. I love sewing, and I… Read More

One of our loyal Sew Cute party members, Soma from Whims And Fancies (home of the Doctor Who paper pieced blocks!), is hosting a College Days blog hop full of 10″ blocks perfect for the graduates in our midst. She asked if I would like to join in to design and… Read More
Last week I destashed some scraps on Instagram, and tomorrow I will hopefully finish that task off! There’s still red, pink, purple, orange and yellow to go, plus a few other bits and pieces too. And there’s still a couple available from this week – some Aurifil, aqua scraps and some Japanese boys’ fabric. I can’t guarantee when I’ll be… Read More
When your good quilting friend is in a bit of a internet connection pickle, you step right on up and help host her weekly quilting linky! Gemma at Pretty Bobbins hosts a quilting linky each Thursday for you to link up any free motion or other quilting posts from the week. It’s kinda ironic that she asked me, considering that… Read More
Summer holidays are fast approaching which means life is about to get a whole lot noisier and busier with both kids back at home again. And as I’ve been running to keep on to things ever since they both started in May (although 2 weeks of visitors and 17 days of solo parenting between now and then haven’t helped), I’ve… Read More
Firstly, let’s have a quick look at last week’s linker-uppers. Last week I had a little competition going for those who shared their #sewcutetuesday posts on Instagram. Here’s some of those… View this post on Instagram Finished my@mini quilt and pouch for the Schmitzel and Boo mini quilt swap #sewcutetuesday @blossomheartquilts A post shared by Janine (@janithom) on Jun 23,… Read More
Last week I saw a new hashtag on Instagram: #quiltforaneela. Aneela recently shared that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer and is having surgery, so quilters are doing what quilters do best – to wrap her with some quilty love while she focuses on her health! Chelsea from Pins and Bobbins is collecting XO blocks made from Aneela Hoey’s… Read More
