And Finally.....

One more pieced cushion tops in Rowan fabrics by Kaffe Fasset- I am going to move on to  a new project now !  I must fet these appliqued and backed though- have a habit of putting them in the "to finish" draw!!




I had a great weekend in Sutton and persuaded my very best friend Laura to come to Dorking with me. It was from a recommendation by Used to Bees blog that Dorking was brought to my attention. There is the most wonderful wool shop-The Fluffatorium, and the beautiful Quilt Room- where I saw and purchased ,along with little packs of paper templates, a great book called All Dolled Up.It had 11 miniature paper piecing projects for dolls or wall hangings. 







I am going to do a tumbler quilt with some Liberty fabics that have been longing to be used for ages! I may do it in 3" tumblers though to start with and then do a really small one! Its amazing how addictive paper piecing can become! 

I'll be  back......

    So glad you got to Dorking and enjoyed its splendours! The book looks great and I'm sure you will create more beauties with its help!

    Thanks Alix- I have never tried anything that small- it is going to be a bit of a challenge!I love the idea of precut templates though- I do hate having to make my own!
