This quilt is inspired by my husband's garden. I love the way the roses take over and even try escaping over the back fence. It's hand appliqued and machine free-motion quilted.100% cotton fabrics and batting. Various colours of stranded thread for the applique and various polyester thread for the quilting.

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.
