tools of the trade...

 well, I don't usually have the shop open on Mondays as that is Rowing Man's day off, and we usually do stuff together,.... but Kerry from Fastpatch called me the other week, and asked if she could call in and show off her stuff. She is doing a roadshow promoting her products, and they are so fabulous! She makes the most wonderful quilts with her marvellous "tools"

 Kerry uses her own batik fabrics, which are such a delight to use, hand dyed 100% cotton, and such good qaulity, no shrink. Have a look at the selection here

 I love this version of Kerry's drunkard's path, she made this using her own tools, and made the work so much easier...

 and this marrinier's compass, using this

 look at these delicous batik's

 and the quilting, Kerry uses a number of different techniques to hi-light her quilts inlcuding using embroidery stitches for quilting,  and embellishing...

 she's hiding behind one of her glorious quilts... camera shy??

 these 3 quilts (2 above and 1 below) are all made using the same cutting tools,

 we had a great day thanks Kerry, and all learned heaps, I will be sure to be stocking some of your great tools in my shop...
