Lizzie the quilter: Easter Monday

I am having a lovely easter break, its going way too fast though. I have lots I want to achieve today so I'm up early and making a start on my list. I wanted to share with you a beautiful gift I received from my dear friend Sunny who lives in the USA. My most favourite place to visit, Sunny made me the sweetest sewing theme mini quilt. I just love it. Look at the cute sewing machine, the pin cushion is even padded and looks amazing.

Sunny also made me this very pretty stitchery, I want to take it to work and have it on my desk.

And some gorgeous Rose fabrics, oh Sunny you know me so well, I love these. Thankyou so much my friend, these gifts will be treasures always.

I have some other exciting news I would like to share with you, my latest design called "Seed Basket" is published in the latest Patchwork and Stitching magazine, this is my 18th design now I have had published and I am loving every minute I spend in my sewing room. Today I am writing up a new pattern for Homespun magazine so please stay tuned for more on that one.

I was lucky enough to have my design on the front cover. Such a proud moment when I first set eyes on the magazine.

I hope you have all had a lovely Easter and you found some sewing time.

Take care. xx

Cath said...: So very spoilt with super gifts. I will look out for that copy of P&S. I don't normally buy it as it is always sealed in plastic and I like to see what I am buying (my rule is at least two projects that I like but I have been known to buy a mag because I like one of the projects so very much) this could be THE one project.; April 6, 2015 at 10:48 AM
