Free quilt pattern - I blame the iron

Recently,  I was availing myself of the amenities at the shopping centre and took the time to read those interesting facts on the back of the door.
No, not the " for a good time  - call Kim" type notices - this one was about iron deficiency.
Apparently a lack of iron can lead to forgetfulness and silly mistakes. I am calling it. I am hereby drastically iron deficient.
That is my excuse for not posting this freebie pattern earlier.


 I made this quilt with the help of my friend Michelle (stitcher extraordinaire) and took it to Houston last October. I thought I might release it as a pattern - but you know, I have been feeling like every shade of shit lately so thought I should just share it for the fun of it. 


I promptly sent the link out with my newsletter and then forgot all about it (lack of iron obviously)


How cute are all those little quilty bubbles. Emma Jansen did the quilting for me in some sort of trade that I have now forgotten but I am sure I got the best end of the deal.

Anyway, the pattern is all organised and you can download it from here .


There is a whole bunch of free stuff over there on the sidebar under Free Patterns  - help yourself !!

I am off to eat some spinach.

quickly now

I am popping in to share with you that the wonderful Rita of Red Pepper Quilts is sharing a quilt she made for me on her blog today.
I know that you guys all know Rita. She has one of the most distinct styles and I very happily send her fabric and say "Do whatever you want Rita", knowing that whatever she does will be awesome.
I am enormously privileged to work with her and eternally grateful not only for her wonderful quiltmaking but also for her real-life , down-to-earth humour and way of looking at things.

 Rita is giving away a fat quarter bundle of The Cat's Pyjamas - all you have to do is visit Rita's blog and leave a comment. Entries are open to everyone. I will post anywhere in the universe !

If you don't already follow Rita on every form of social media - you better hop to it ! 
(You can thank me later)
