New Christmas in July projects coming soon

As July approaches we Australians begin to get excited about celebrating Christmas all over again. A delicious roast dinner with all the trimmings is far more enjoyable in the cooler months than in our traditionally very hot summer. So in keeping with this trend Stitching Cow will be released a collection of new Christmas patterns.
You can take a sneak peek at some of them over on the Little Green Cottage blog.

But for now I have one new pattern that was designed to compliment my Christmas in Italy block of the month quilt. Named Villas in Winter this fabric box is decorated with simple hand embroidery and needle turn applique. A collection of Villas is nestled amongst the snow laden hills and the top band has been decorated with small hexagons.

This project is available as a paper pattern or as an e-pattern which can be downloaded to your computer in a flash. Pop on over to the Stitching Cow website for more photos and information about this pattern.

Stay tuned for a new collection of Christmas patterns which will be released soon.

Stitching Cow at Quilters Easter Showcase Brighton TAS

It's always wonderful when a group of ladies come together with a common passion for sewing. There is always much talking, a bit of quilting, the sharing of ideas and of course much laughter. Brighton's Quilters Showcase Gathering last Saturday was such an occasion and I was very fortunate to be invited as a stall holder.

The day was organized by a very productive team of people with prizes being given throughout the day and an inspiring show and tell to conclude in the afternoon.
 Here's a few photos of the stall.





It was also wonderful to meet some of my mailing list members who have been sharing my sewing journey over the last few years. A big thank you must go to the committee for organizing such a special event, Janice and I look forward to being apart of it again next year.
