Over the last couple of months, I realise I've become addicted to Cottages! They seem to be appearing everywhere in my designs! We have a beautiful home which I absolutely love, but a modern large home just doesn't cut it when it comes to applique and stitching!!! My Rosebud Cottage was the project I taught at the Creative Craft Retreat last year, and now it has been published and the pattern is available in Australian Country Threads magazine, Vol 14 No 1. Of course a sweet country cottage needs a wheelbarrow full of flowers: and a fountain through an arch: As you can see, it is a practical project - a 6 inch box for all your treasures: I was looking back through some of my designs to see when I started becoming addicted to Cottages. I think it began with my Country Cottage Calendar a couple of years ago: Then my free 2011 Block of the Month Quilt, Consider the Lilies, had this cute little cottage: and last year Maisie lived in this while she tended her Market Garden: Now we're up to this year! Remember my 100th published design, Calista Cottage? The pattern is now available for purchase along with my other cottages on my Wall-quilt page. If you prefer instant download, you can purchase the pattern at my Craftsy Pattern store. Our house is rather quiet now. Our daughter who lives overseas was living with us for the last 6½ weeks and she went back home on Friday. She has a very hearty laugh and kept us entertained with lots of anecdotes. Now it's time to start meeting some of the deadlines that are looming - a cushion, a tablecloth, a stitchery, answer to Profile questions and some embroidery for an editor who phoned to ask did I have anything in mind for her! I love my retirement career! As if there aren't enough photos in this post, I will finish with a sneak peak of another cottage which will be published later this year: Happy stitching! Val
I've been doing more slow stitching in the evenings, sitting on the sofa surrounded by tiny scraps of fabric and colourful threads, needles, pins and scissors at the ready. I so enjoyed sewing my Slow Stitching - Shapes that I thought I would do something similar but with a flower theme. These are all about 6" square and, as with the "Shapes" I didn't plan any of the sewing, but just let the pictures evolve. Each one started with a square of blue stripe fabric backed with some wadding, and I started the sewing with a few pieces of fabric in the background. This one began with the fence, then the dotty green fabric, the stitched trellis, stems, leaves and finally flowers. I started this one with the leaf shapes, then stems, flowers, stitched lines at the bottom and finally the bee. (excuse the stray thread which I've just noticed) The order for this one was green fabric strips, thick stems, flowers and finally the stitched grasses. And for this one (which was actually the first I sewed) I started with the strips of brown and green fabrics in the background, then the stems, leaves, flowers, grasses and finally the stitching across the bottom. I plan to make them into a zigzag book so that when it is opened they will be in a horizontal line like this: To finish, I zigzagged the squares onto a backing fabric and then trimmed around. Still having fun - hope you are too! Anita xx

Today’s post continues the theme from this past Sunday. I know what I always do and I want something different.
Description from The Stitchery Studio “The kit contains an A4-sized stitch sampler that Nicki uses for her Stitchery Masterclasses. Displayed in a grid format, with each box separated by running stitch, the sampler includes all of the stitches we have used at The Stitchery this year: French knots, bullion knots, seed stitch, buttonhole stitch and split stitch to name just a few. There is space at the bottom of the grid for the stitcher to put their initials and date if they wish, just like the old alphabet samplers she finds so inspiring. The sampler is self-explanatory as to which stitches go where but the kit includes 5 full skeins of DMC embroidery thread and an A6 booklet with detailed instructions on how to complete each stitch together with a few of Nicki’s favourite embroidery tips. The kit is presented in a beautiful special edition folder illustrated by Kate Nicole of Oyster Bridge & Co.”
