The best time to wash a quilt
Is on a windy day
Then you can put all your cares
In the patchwork squares
And watch them blow away!

A few years ago I wanted to make a really special gift for a 'significant birthday' of my brother.  I decided on a quilt and made one that I thought was stunning (luckily, he thought so too!).  I now realise that I made it very badly, but I became totally hooked on quilting and learning how to quilt different kinds of quilts.  I've heard it described as a healthy obsession.  So many glorious fabrics to use, so many different kinds of quilts to make ..........

I read every how to quilt book and magazine that I could find, took courses, went on all the how to quilt workshops that I could.  Then a friend said that she would love to learn how to make patchwork quilts but knew that it was too difficult for her.  She was amazed when I showed her that by breaking down the quilting project into easy steps, it was possible for anyone to learn how to quilt and sew and make the same beautiful quilting projects.

That was when I realised that if I could show my friend how to quilt and sew, maybe there are more people who could learn how to quilt and sew from my patterns and instructions.  so I decided to write them up and provide them to you, too.
