Well - here it is!! I have at last, seen the Needleturn Applique with Ease with Robyn Falloon DVD which we filmed in Sydney last September for Quilters Companion magazine - and after my initial cringes at the wrinkles and a few ‘fluffs’, I think I am fairly comfortable with it! But it is so different looking back at the reality of yourself in this format…. “Is that what I am like - REALLY??
It was however, a wonderful experience and my thanks go to Editor Clare Mooney and the wonderful crew who put it all together.
You may also notice in this photo, the 65 Roses block which I designed and made for the QC Mystery Garden Quilt. This block was created following Clare’s invitation in 2009 to take part in the making of a quilt to be donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation NSW. Blocks by Kerrilyn Gavin and Karen Cunningham also feature in this issue. Three further blocks will be published in the next issue of Quilters Companion magazine, followed by the final three in the issue after that. What an honour and a privilege it was to take part in this project. The quilt will be auctioned on 19 June 2010. For information about placing a bid, you can contact the Foundation on 1800 650 614.
My Somerset Cushion (photo on DVD package) is also featured as a project in the magazine.
If you would like a copy of the magazine, it is on sale at newsagents and selected outlets in Australia from this week - Quilters Companion Issue #41. Or visit www.quilterscompanion.com.au
