Back so soon!

Hello again. Twice in one day has got to be a record ;) I just couldn't wait to share my exciting news with you! Apologies to those that follow us on Instagram and have already seen. Today my copy of Love Patchwork and Quilting Issue 8 arrived...
 and I can finally show you some of my secret sewing!
I made this simple Ice-cream quilt for Love Patchwork and Quilting in February/March and am delighted to finally see it in print! My first ever commission for a printed publication! I'm beyond excited! I love the way that they have styled it :) It looks rather more accomplished than the dodgy effort I took at home ;)

I don't think I'm going to get tired of seeing my name in print any time soon, my profile picture however is another matter! I'm not sharing that here!
It's quite the weekend for me really. Tomorrow I'm venturing to the Quilt and Stitch Village at Uttoxeter with Kerry and Susan. It's going to be amazing to see our quilts on display in person :) I'll try and get some nice pictures of that for another post. Yvonne, Ange and Trudi are planning on popping in too so it should be a fun day all round :) Catch you soon x
