Patchwork and Quilting  |  February 2020
"We’ve got a wonderful selection of quilt projects to inspire you this month. The Hillside Quilt makes great use of the new Great British Quilter Back to Basics collection designed by Sarah Ashford for Dashwood Studio. If quick piecing is your thing, the Concentric Squares quilt is a simple quilt to make, add a few HST units and you’ve made Berry Burst. If you have some leftover strips from a strip roll pack, Katharine Guerrier’s Strippy Table Runner is a great way of using them up. I used Liberty Tana Lawn for the first time in my Liberty Fans Wall Hanging and I think I’m in love! They also quilted beautifully too. We make the final blocks and complete our Swirling Stars Quilt while Stuart’s Stashbusting block this month uses up all those thin little strips we keep. The block would be fun using up selvedges too!
Your reading material in this issue includes a look at the members of the Crossing Oceans Textile Artists group and their first body of work based on the theme of nature. Sheilah Daughtree takes a look at the Spotlight @40 collection of quilts that were first displayed at the Festival of Quilts last August while Judi Mendelssohn revisits Sew and So’s in Let’s Go Shopping. Sylvia Priest tells us about her First and Last quilts and we meet Shipton Quilters in Introducing."
