Shibori Quilt...
This quilt uses hand dyed shibori fabrics that I made during a fabric printing class a few years ago.

Explorations in yellow, orange, pink and red...
Recent quilts in various states of completion.
And lanterns … hoping to see many more when I go to Morocco!
Experiments in table runners...
Two patchwork squares that I thought were too good to turn into potholders, so I made them into a table runner or a placemat of some sort. Or I could turn it into a wall hanging?
mt masking tape...
I recently discovered mt masking tape and I couldn’t help trying out some card designs…
Liberty Prints...
I love Liberty fabrics… love might even be an understatement.
These fabrics I’m using are a limited edition range from Liberty brought out for the Victoria and Albert Museum’s Quilts: 1700 – 2010 exhibition.
I’m always hesitant to cut into new fabrics but this time I couldn’t resist. I was inspired by Film in the Fridge to revisit hexagons. I’m not sure what I’ll make from these hexagons yet… perhaps cushion covers.
I just love the process of english paper piecing – the slow pace of hand sewing. Stay tuned for the final product.
Patchwork for the Pickle...
I’m halfway into making a quilt for Liz’s baby (pickle). Hopefully it will work for either a boy or a girl!
Printed Fabric…...
I printed these fabrics using designs carved into lino blocks. I learnt this at a fabric printing class run at the Brisbane Institute of Art a couple of years ago. I haven’t had the chance to get back to fabric printing for a year or so… I wish I had a studio with huge tables to work on…
Country Inspiration...
There is nothing like getting out of the city to spark some creativity…
Some potholders or quilt squares in the making. I haven’t decided yet.
And I finished the baby quilt. It’s binded with purple homespun and so artfully held by my wonderful partner Dave!
