We hope you enjoy "the ride" with us and please let us know if we can help you with anything you need to know.  Make sure you come back on 27th July for our first official posting!!!


We will have a free raggedy stitchery design from Cath for our end of July posting.  See you then!!!

    Congratulations. It's a great idea (esp. the free patterns LOL).
    Will you make a button to put on our blogs? Not that I'm an active blogger, but one never knows... :-))

    Hi Jan. I am Nadine Thompson. You posted on my blog, Somewhere In Time, today. You have questions about the Aunty Jane quilt and whether there is a pattern. This is what I know for sure. The images I am working with have been sent to me by Gail Chalker of Australia. I met her last year in a class I was teaching in Omaha Nebraska at Baltimore on the Prairie. Subsequently, Gail invited me and four other American quilters to join her and four other Australian quilters to make a quilt using patterns she has traced and sent to us. I understand that the museum housing this quilt gave permission for 10 ten of these quilts to be made. The best advice I have is for you to contact Gail. I believe she lives in Gatton, Old Australia. She also has a quilt shop called Sew Creative. Look her up on the internet. There is a lot there about her. Good luck. I would love to hear from you with whatever luck you have in your quest
