Advent Tree

Quilt lovers young and old will enjoy sewing this quilt and then savouring the fruits of their labours, designed by Davina Thomas

This appealing small hanging designed and made by Anja Townrow is ideal as an easy project for all those handpiecers out there. Anja has used a wide variety of fabric but you could make in just two or three colours if required. Alternatively, try to match the fabric with your own house or street.

Tassel Toran

This Toran by Sarah Dixon was made from small amounts of fabrics, so it would make a great fat eighths and scrap fabric project. It is important to experiment with the fabrics to see which placement looks best - this is by far the longest part of this quick project which can be made in a couple of hours!

Blue Collar Workers

Country Hearts

This tiny wall quilt, designed by Lesley Brankin, is sewn using simple strip patchwork techniques. You will be delighted to know that accuracy of cutting and piecing is not essential as much of the charm of the quilt is created by not being too exact! The small size ensures that the quilt can be sewn in a couple of evenings at most. The strip patchwork border should be sewn by machine but the rest of the quilt can be completed by hand if you wish.
