October 2021

In this newsletter update, you'll see that we've been spoilt for choice with so many beautiful new fabric arrivals to brighten our days. It just makes me wish I had more time to sew! Our delivery of Quiltmania, Simply Moderne and Simply Vintage magazines have finally arrived, approximately a month later than usual. Their late delivery is very much an indication of the problems with postal and courier deliveries both from overseas and locally at the moment. No doubt this will get worse before it gets better. But patience will get us there in the end hopefully. BOM Update Nature's Paintbox Designed by Rachelle Denneny and featuring delicate floral prints by Jason Yenter from his Watercolor beauty range, this beautiful quilt is the inaugural Quilter's Companion BOM. The first instalment of the pattern was published in the July 2021 edition of Quilters Companion and will be released over 6 issues. All fabrics are purchased up front and we also have an optional accessories starter pack available. We have a LIMITED number of kits available in both colourways. Full details can be found here Aurifil Thread Lovers Clubs Our thread clubs commence this month, and run over 6 or 9 months depending on your choice.
