Having a break from my research for a future blog post which has proven both time consuming and informative.
My copy of Kaffe Fassett’s Quilt Romance came from Amazon.com today. Kathy devoted a blog post to the book here. ….her post has photos of the projects too! I adore this book because it is photographed in Portmerion....where my favourite china originated. It is a village in Wales where quaint cottages and buildings are painted in the most glorious colours.
I popped out for a while to get fresh veggies for dinner and on the way popped into Vinnies where I found the cute sewing basket. While it is a tad small for my sewing needs its perfect for my evening beading. It will be perfect for my pliers and findings and wire etc. I also found the as new skirt which was exquisitely hand tailored…you know with the seams sewn with a top stitch not a zig zag. Pity to cut it up…but don’t worry I won’t lose any sleep over it…it will be perfect for my LibertyV Quilt. I need masses of blues for that and also it will be good for the mosaic one below….still looking out for Liberty fabrics for that one!
Okay off to watch television for a while..then more research!

Good luck with the Liberty hunt. I love all those blues!
I think I have enough blues now…am on the hunt for the purples and vivid greens now!
The blues are lovely. I’ve posted some pics of the new baby on my blog and one of them is especially for you!
I love the photo…my goodness she is gorgeous! She has a way to go to grow into the quilt though!
