South West Lite
Picture
NB, I haven't used a picture from my design software for this one, because unusually the colours I use do not run 'true' on it.  Therefore, this is my pieced top, completed whilst on retreat in Port Isaac, Cornwall
A light and bright use of 'Southwestern' colours. with a hint of the Clovis arrowheads for good measure!

Size: 98" x 98" approx

 Caramel Moccachino

Picture
Another coffeehouse inspiration, this time from my son!

The photo on the left is of my top which I pieced on the same retreat as 'Gingerbread Latte'. Look carefully and you will see when I pieced the top I made an error and didn't flip one of the elements properly! It's been put to rights now, but you can see we ALL make mistakes no matter how experienced we are so, there's no shame in admitting it :-)

The quilt finishes at about 78" square

Crown Imperial
Picture
When thinking of a name for the design, I was struck by how the various ‘bands’ of colour running across the pattern are very like the sashes important people wear at state functions, and to which they pin their medals and orders.  One of the blocks is very like an ‘order’ star! 
The quilt finishes at around 89" square

Heatwave
Picture
Picture
Well three guesses for what the weather was doing when I designed this one??

The picture is of my top just after I'd completed it.  The pattern is $8.99, like all my standalone patterns - please email me if you would like it as I haven't uploaded it to the site yet!

Cantre'r Gwaelod
Picture
The legend of Cantre'r Gwaelod is a sort of 'Welsh Atlantis' story  and some believe the source of the Arthurian 'Lyonesse'.  I hope this explains the mysterious, watery feel to this design.

Rain on the Beach
Picture
One of the perils of a British summer seaside holiday, at least this quilt will keep you warm and cosy no matter what the weather is doing outside!

Lavender Blue
Picture
Another Valentine quilt for those who aren't into overt romance! Who remembers the sweet old song which shares this quilt's title?

Homecoming
Picture
I am a big fan of the 'Quilts of Valour' project and this was designed with that very much in mind.

Moelgillau Apache

Majesty
Picture
I wanted to mark the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II in some way, so used the fabulous jewels in her collection as a starting point.  The pattern includes instructions for at least four alternative colourways, using both light and dark backgrounds.

Size: 98" approx

Berry Shortcake
Picture
The possibilities for colours are fairly endless - Berry Icecream (above) would be ideal for a little girl's 'Princess Bedroom'. Whereas 'Blueberry Shortcake' (below) I think would be more suitable in an adult context. There is also a 'Christmas' colourway shown on the 'Christmas designs' page.

The pattern includes instructions for all three colourways - what a total bargain!

The overall finished size is around 66" square.

Sea Turtle
Picture
Picture
A lot of British kids of my generation were brought up on BBC wildlife programmes where terribly well-spoken presenters would attempt to educate us all about the fauna in various parts of the world.  I didn’t really care much for the four legged creatures scampering over the plains of Africa. Progammes about turtles however, meant I was completely glued to the screen and used to cheer the little babies on when they emerged from their sandy nest and tried to make it to the nearby sea.  So this quilt is really a throwback to those times, where I imagine my little turtles swimming through lovely clear tropical water in the sunshine.

The quilt finishes at around 92" square

Black Bear in the Woods
Picture
I wanted to do a classic design for a beginner quilter and there is no more classic block pattern than a bear paw! 
 


Picture
It would also work well in other colourways, as the blue one below shows (developed in response to a customer request!)

Rainbow Beach
Picture
This is another design for a beginner quilter and gets you practising those half-square triangles! 
Hopefully it's such a cheerful design that you'll forget you are learning!

Kansas Square Dance
Picture
A sprightly rendition of some simpler blocks for the less experienced quilter, worked in Kansas Troubles fabrics for Moda. It would also look fabulous in a brighter colourway so why not let your imagination dance a jig too?!
The pattern is $8.99, like all my standalone patterns - please email me if you would like it as I haven't uploaded it to the site yet!

Strawberry Frosting
Picture
Inspired by some 'Valentine' cupcakes I spotted in a bakery in Wadebridge on an absolutely freezing February day!  Make it to warm up YOUR Valentine!

And the third in my trio of Valentine quilts for the romantically challenged!  This was bizarrely inspired by one of my son's Nordic socks - see how many 'hearts' you can spot!

Cinnamon Snowflakes
Picture
I am actually more of a savoury treat afficionado than a sweet one, but I confess being inspired by cheese is a bit beyond even me. So here I expose another small dirty secret to the world - I do absolutely adore warm cinnamon rolls for breakfast!
The pattern is $8.99, like all my standalone patterns - please email me if you would like it as I haven't uploaded it to the site yet!
