And that means that Christmas in July is quickly sneaking up on me. Which explains my relative silence here over the past few days… I am madly drawing and patterning. (Is that a word?)
I thought I’d pop in today, however, to give you a little peek of what’s coming next month. The very first project I’ll be sharing is our now traditional Christmas BOM series. And this year it’s going to be about gingerbread. Yum!
You like? Well, there’s oh so much more to come. Back to putering (which is not the same as puttering!) and patterning.
I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media. I am a quilt designer and teacher, and design and publish my own line of quilt patterns. With this blog I would like to share the bits and pieces of my life.

Angie, that is definitely being made and given to my daughter. They all make a gingerbread house every year. Its their favourite cookie too. I must get some “gingerbread” fabric while I’m on holidays. I’m really looking forward to doing this one.
Thanks for another great pattern.
Well, the good news for you, Bev, is that there will also be a fabric gingerbread house pattern this year. I have been baking gingerbread houses for 35 years now (actually, this year will be the 35th). So a couple of years ago I sewed a fabric gingerbread house, in the hopes that the family would be willing to accept it as a replacement. Not so. The kids outvoted me, so I guess I will have to continue to bake them for a long, long time. In the meantime, the fabric house makes a really nice candy container!
I’ll make that too, Angie and fill it with candies for them. They will love it.
I luv this gingerbread quilt. I cannot wait to start working on this project. Keep em’coming.
