A friend on a hand quilting email list sent me this link to a site that has the most beautiful silk threads: 171 colours, quilting weight as well 50wt and 100wt. I’d love to try this thread as looks absolutely gorgeous. I’m betting Janet from Quiltsalott will also be drooling over these when she takes a look.

Mr Tiggy Q.C.

Have you met Mr Tiggy Q.C. (Quilting Cat)? Whenever you put a piece of fabric on the floor he’ll sit on it for you. When I’m at the machine in the sewing room he’s there too.

He just loves quilts and so a while ago I made him one of his own out fabrics I didn’t like but it turned out OK and he likes it.

Scones on the way…

I’ve just made some savoury scones and though I do say so myself they are particularly yummy.

I might post the recipe later if anyone is interested?
