I haven't had time to update you with some of the goodies I received at Christmas which I have added to my sewing stash.
Firstly, I managed to finally get my hands on a 'Floral Gatherings' Layer Cake, by Primitive Gatherings for Moda. These are available in the USA and Australia, according to the internet, but have yet to reach UK shores. It is one of those ranges that I have had my eye on for months, and I think my Mother picked them up in a flash sale at the Fat Quarter Shop, which helps a bit with the international shipping. There is also a 'Floral gatherings Shirtings' range, again, which seems to be taking an age to get to the UK, which I am still waiting for. Both sets have small floral prints on them (as the name suggests!). In particular there are some red and white prints which I was keen to get my hands on.
My SIL gave me a book by Kathleen Tracy, 'Civil War Sewing Circle', which has lots of projects in it. There are lots of small projects in this book which have caught my eye, which I could use the Floral Gatherings for and other Primitive Gatherings prints.
Back in the summer at the Festival of Quilts I bought myself a present, a stand to display miniature quilts. It would hold a quilt 12" by 12.5". As yet I don't have any miniature quilts to display, but as you can see from the above, everything is in place to make it happen.
