Patchwork at Homespun

Do you struggle to thread your machine? Here’s a handy tip:

🌸 Remove needle from machine first.
🌸 Thread your thread.
🌸 Reattached needle.

If you don’t have a needle threader on your machine, your eyes letting you down or not enough light, it can be helpful to remove the needle first and then thread.

Today I am using this technique to thread a thicker weight thread onto my machine.

🩷 Free Tutorial on covering those messy cord knots 🩷

A lovely finishing touch to your project. The tabs protect and cover the knotted ends, preventing them from unravelling.

Our free one page tutorial is available on our website under Patterns.

Easy and quick, and oh so pretty.

Janette has made some drawstring bags for sheets and the tabs finish the project off nicely.

New Jacket Pattern instore!

Donna whipped up this gorgeous jacket last night. 🩷

The Laura Jacket can be made with patchworked fabrics or two of your favourite fabrics quilted.

Donna made it reversible too!
She’s a clever gal! 👏👏👏

That feeling you get when the needle has disappeared from your project 😱

Have you ever lost a needle and then found it in a random place after?

I’m attaching binding whilst on the couch and it’s just disappeared. The thread is there hanging, but no sign of the needle.

This beautiful quilt by Pat has just been quilted and ready for binding.

This is a Swoon quilt with star block on the outside. I love a mix of blocks 😍

My view as I work. 🩷

Running a patchwork shop involves so much more than playing with fabric (shock horror, I know 😂). But on days like these, office work doesn’t seem so bad. ❤️

My dear old cat playing with bugs in the garden is a bit of a distraction but he’ll get tired soon.

😩

Lena popped in with her gorgeous work in progress looking for more fabrics to build on her Judy Newman quilt 🌸

As a fan of Judy’s and of this genre of fabrics it was great to see Lena develop her vision with more beautiful fabrics.

It really makes our day when we see the fabulous projects our customer are working on.

Thanks Lena for letting us be part of the journey for this quilt ❤️

Do more of what you love ❤️

Alice’s Wonderland Sampler Quilt Book - Hardcover

🌸100 Quilt Blocks 🌸

This beautifully presented pattern book is a must have for any quilter. With almost 200 pages of coloured pictures and instructions, you will fall in love and not want to put it down 🌸

No Liberty fabrics in your stash, this beautiful quilt can be created with any fabrics that you love.

Or if you prefer, build the variety in your Liberty stash with our great value monthly Liberty Tana Lawn Club. Details on our website patchworkathomespun.com.au

Starting with the simplest patchwork techniques and building from there, you will learn one or two basic techniques across ten different blocks, each one creating completely different patterns simply by using new arrangements and placements. Full sized English paper piecing and appliqué templates, including Alice's hand-drawn designs, are provided. Each block forms a 6-inch square which then joins together at the end with the other blocks to make the finished quilt comprising of 100 beautiful blocks.

After you have made your main blocks, the stunning border of the quilt is added. It includes a double rainbow border, an ivory border, and a further square-in-a-square rainbow border using prints from the main quilt to tie the whole colour scheme together.

Featuring step-by-step illustrations for all the techniques and full-size templates, this stunning sampler quilt will build your skills and leave you with a treasured heirloom to pass on down the generations.🌸
