Quilting for Brenda & Julie

Hello Quilty Friends!

Here we both are looking down the barrel of another month nearly over.

I came home from my annual birthday week away to quilt tops coming in thick & fast!

Of course if you read Julie's latest blog post you would have seen her quilt top came home with me too.

Brenda contacted me a while back about custom quilting her first Sue Spargo quilt:

 Fresh Cut & Truffle Duffel ( also a Sue Spargo design) she made. You are about to see why I was super impressed with Brenda's two quilts, they are Sue Spargo designs BUT Brenda has added her style & personality to them both, creating unique quilts!

 Let's take a look at Brenda & Julie's quilts:

I think it's time I hopped up on a VeRy tall chair and give a shout out to my little shop!

From time to time I mention a new quilt I've made for my shop.

 Lately I've been pushing (argh - totally out of my comfort zone!) the quilts I make to sell on my Instagram and Facebook.

Then I remembered what a lovely bunch of quilt lovers you all are!

So maybe you can help me?? 

Perhaps some of you would be happy to share my quilt shop to your friends and family?

The more the merrier! I would be so happy if you did.

Here is my latest quilt, it's not a big quilt but it packs some wow factor because

 of the custom quilting.
