My daughter organises a cupcake day each year for Telethon, our local children's hospital fundraiser. Volunteer bakers donate their cupcakes and time and all proceeds of their sale goes to Telethon. I can't bake so I am making these sets for her. They are from a web bonus pattern in Quilt magazine Oct/Nov 2012.

This is another colourway for the hidden stars pattern. The yellow and the grey work well together and the stars really shine. I tried an all over design of leaves and flowers hoping to get the pattern within the stars as well. I'll have to work on that!

I thought the beautiful border print needed a different sort of quilt so I tried the slash and put together technique, a little like writing music! It's 100% cotton fabric and batting and quilted on my home machine with an all over design of a treble clef.

I loved this material and wanted something to showcase it. What better than a classic

This lovely nursery rhyme wall quilt came from an excellent book from Quiltmania called Special Children 2011. Only downside to the pattern is the metric measuring. Coming from France all the measurements although written in english are metric! All my rulers are feet and inches. Had to get some new rulers. Fun and unexpected patterns can be found in this book.

I made this lovely quilt for a young friend's wedding present. It is hand appliqued, machine pieced and machine quilted at home. I enjoyed using the rich colours.
