* Quilting Gems, tips, and techniques to make awesome quilts
FLAMBOYANT FUCHSIAS
'Flamboyant Fuchsias' is in this months 'Australian Patchwork and
Quilting' magazine (Vol 18, No 9).
We have had a number of people wanting to know where to get the
gorgeous fuchsia border fabric from.
We are so glad that you like it as much as we do! So here is some
information on where to get it from.
The fabric is called Fuchsia Collection by Jackie Robinson for
Maywood Studio. She has designed a number of beautiful collections
including Fuchsias II, Leaves, Poinsettia, He Loves Me and a new
collection which came out in October called Roses. All have the lovely
wavy border design which can be used for this pattern.
A few Victoria shops that have stocked Jackie's fabrics are:
Heart ">Patchwork with Gail B in Bayswater, Melbourne
GJ's Discount Fabrics in Lygon Street, Melbourne
You can also buy Jackie's fabric online at

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST
ABOUT QUILTING?
Is it the challenge of a new quilting technique, the fabulous
fabrics we love to caress, or the pride and satisfaction in finishing
a gorgeous throw?
We are a mother and daughter team who are passionate about
patchwork, and about passing on our knowledge to benefit others.
The information on our website will always be changing as we
experiment with new ideas and compile new tutorials.
We want to offer you free patterns, tutorials on how to simplify
your projects, and information on a variety of topics.
All with the aim of making your creative life easier, fun and more
productive.
Whether you are looking for designs for patchwork, information for
beginners, or are looking for advanced techniques, we hope to have
some special gems for you.
Making patchwork quilts is one of the most satisfying crafts we have
ever undertaken. It is a link to former times when friendships were
valued and family was cherished, and people came together to work on a
common project. Ideas, chitchat, and news were all shared, much as it
is in our contemporary groups.
This is what we love most about Quilting!
Happy Quilting
