I could these 2 books for a bargain £12 posted.  Really wanted the foundation paper piecing one as I love the blue quilt and want to do some paper piecing but not just going at it! Actually following some good instructions.  This is why I have not started the Tuffet yet as I’m petrified I will bugger it up as I have tweaked it/ strayed  from the pattern and don’t want to regret just going at it!

I have also been looking high and low for my first ever quilting book as there is a pattern in there that I want to make.  I may have had the fabric and pattern for over 6 years so its pretty high up my make list (which is all in my head).

Lastly, found with my first book was a right surprise! A few weeks ago I saw on UK quilters united a folded fabric colour gradient star cushion – saved the picture and asked for more info.. looked up the book and decided I didn’t have enough time at the moment but logged it in the memory….. I have that book… my mummy got it for me many moons ago not sure when exactly…. Also its signed and dedicated to me… its a funny old world.  I remember mum giving me the book a few years ago and me writing it off as way too old fashioned… maybe I’m getting old fashioned!
