New Patterns!

After a long absence I finally have some new patterns. And of course with all new patterns there is a giveaway!

Here is the Turtle Tower.

Turtle Tower

The pattern includes the original turtle that appeared in Homespun last year plus four new sizes ranging down to a little one that is perfect for a pin cushion. You can even fill these with beans!

And my newest pattern is Parterre, a very modern (for me!) quilt that is perfect for showing off lovely large patterns.

Parterre

It also comes in two sizes - one for the sofa and one for a queen sized bed!

So if there are any of you still reading that would like to win a pattern, leave a comment and I'll draw a few names out Sunday 16th May.

For those of you who would like to purchase either of these patterns they are currently both available at amitie textiles - be aware that their new website is under development and you can just email them. And if you are interested in stocking them please just send me an email.

THose turtles remind me of the )dr. suess?) book 'Yertle the Turtle', they are very fantastic, as is that 'modern' (for you!!- that made me laugh) quilt and that gorgeous fabric. Thanks for having a giveaway.

YUM - love those turtles! How cute would a little pincushion turtle be, altho I'd feel a bit mean sticking pins in it.

The SIT shopping tour is leaving the city at 12:45pm on Friday and first stop is Amitie. I'm not sure how long it takes to get to Amitie, but we'll be there for about 40 minutes. Hope you can make it, it would be lovely to meet you!
