| The newest yummy book |
I buy them for the pictures ... the colourful inspiration that gets me out of my comfy chair and up to the sewing table.
For example:
I soooo want to crawl into Sarah's fabric stash and wallow in the colourful goodness.
But what took me by surprise about this book, is that I was actually REALLY interested in reading the patterns. The concept of the book is so very clever. 10 different quilting techniques, each illustrated with a dolly quilt pattern (in case you want to try it out before committing to a larger project) and a larger bed-sized pattern.
Great illustrations and well written patterns.
I really HAVE to make this quilt (LOVE the little 3D tabs in the border!!!) .....
So .... do yourself a favour and go check out this ACE new book!!

So glad I'm not the only one who buys a book just for the colours, not for the patterns!! Looks fab.

I love the looks of this book! The sneaky peeks have been fabulous! I can't wait for it to come to the US!
Andi,
If anyone could claim to have a handle on bright colour like Sarah, the it would be you.
The Whirligig looks fabulous.
I saw several peeks of the book in blogland and i already picked a pattern i want to make. Coming across your blog I was distracted from commenting on this give away by all the colours that popped off the screen :) Love your work!
