BEHIND THE QUILT
CREATE CIRCLE FRAMES!
“When you have been sewing for as long as I have, you can have quite a collection of fabrics and it may sound completely mad, but I am loathe to cut some of them up! A few of you may know that feeling – it sits alongside the stroke-ability power of fabrics. Some fabrics you pull off the shelf and sit and pat or stroke, saying: ‘Isn’t that just beautiful’ and then you fold it up and put it back safely on its perch – in my case it’s my growing collection of Dutch fabrics. If you are the same, have we got a project for you! This quilt is a perfect way to showcase some of your favourite fabrics, and all you need is a 6½in circle – you can keep the rest safe!
“Our cover gift for this issue is a set of nine shapes to create circular frames around those beautiful fabrics and a 6in circle that fits all the frames. There are so many combinations to make! You can fussy cut or not, needle-turn appliqué
