Welcome to my blog! This is where I write about quilting and quilty things and possibly more! I am from the north east of Scotland where we have lots of wind and rain, but when the sun shines everything sparkles. Or as we say in these parts "looks really bonnie!" I love bright fabric and while I try traditional occasionally I always end up stroking the brights! Thanks for stopping by Bonnie and Bright! Sara x

I adore my local John Lewis department store. It is a ten minute walk away and it is very tempting. So much so that people have asked me if I buy everything there. Now I can honestly say the answer is no! We have recently had some pretty wild winds... Continue reading

Have you ever been asked to make a block for a secret quilt? I have - 3 times! The first two blocks I made were for ladies who were moving on from the quilt groups that I attend. Aberdeen is the oil capital of Europe and so people often come... Continue reading

I can't remember how I came to find Sweetwater but I do remember instantly falling in live with all that they do! They design beautiful fabric and patterns but also have a gorgeous Sweetwater Etsy Shop and I can't recommend it highly enough. My first purchase was some beautiful cards... Continue reading

Thank you!:) It's so easy to make and the fleece fabric means it is very soft for little people!

Hi there! Yes, I am so lucky, my local quilt shop not only has a long arm quilt service but you can also get a lesson and then go for it yourself! So much fun.:) Thanks for the comment. It's made my day! Happy New Year!

You may remember I recently blogged about planning a quilt on a train journey, then showed you the fabric I intended to use... Well I can finally say I am nearly there! The quilt was a surprise Christmas present for my step-mother. Unfortunately the surprise changed slightly due to an... Continue reading

This was my first attempt Renate. I have to say it did make the quilt top come together much more quickly. I'd definitely recommend it! Thanks for all your lovely comments. :)
