Unicorn 🦄 quilt test for Helen @and_sew_i

Post from summer 2022 pattern available from @and_sew_i



🌈Yay the time has come we can now share this awesome quilt what a honour it was to be asked to test another pattern for Helen @and_sew_i a very talented designer friend we think she’s a inspirational lady with a talented mind. Called Unique-orn When we seen it we fell in love and thought this will be a challenge and the biggest full FPP pattern to attempt 🦄 because of our visual impairment we went with the large one 60”x80” and started the planning right away then bought our fabrics at Malvern quilts uk then over two weeks every day sewn each section it’s super accessible with amazing introductions, diagrams, fabric Key and large fonts and numbers. Pieced and will be quilted with @aurifilthread 🌈🦄🌈🦄 and we couldn’t have done it without our amazing Pfaff Machines IDT and FPP is a million times easier then other machines! 🌈🦄 Pattern Out on 1st July Two sizes and options for horse 🐴 and Unique-corn 🦄  thanks to all the testers for there amazing help and support as well as Helen for getting our sense of humour!!! #uniqueornquilt #fpp #foundationpaperpiecing #rainbowquilt #unicornquilt #guicyguice #libselliott #aurifil50wt #modernquilt #greatbritishquilter #modafabrics #ukquiltersunited #pfaffquiltexpression720 #pfaffadmireair5000

  Hello  We are Leeann and Kayleigh 😀😀 known as @quiltingtwins on Instagram and to our friends and family we get a array of names “the girlies” “the girls” “the twins” “the girly whirlies” “the rainbow twins” Which we really don’t mind being identical twins you have to be easy with the names if there pleasant thats what counts and believe us we had some unpleasant ones. And all the questions a million times over we have an idea for a wall quilt on this subject we must get it designed and made. We attended a special educational school in seniors after a late diagnosis of our impairments it was the scariest time starting the brand new school but by the end it was hard to say goodbye amazing patient staff a big family then college was next in all subjects of creativity as that’s what we loved and found we was good at.  We have always been into Art crafts and Handmade since we can remember and after finishing college after starting from the bottom excess course in art and design we achie

  Hello it’s been a while it’s been pretty hectic around here that feeling like your running and can’t stop. Hopefully next week we have more time for self care (sewing) and catching up we must make time for ourselves you no your tried when you say yesterday but you mean tomorrow or buy Christmas cards and there 80 already under your bed brought in the sale in January lockdown and your memory is getting poor.

We are hoping to be in there for Christmas so we can

Bridge quilters our local quilt group

  When we first attended our local Quilt group meeting 11 years ago after our course learning how to patchwork and quilt our teacher used to be a member and the groups shop with supplies. We was wracked with nerves going into a large church hall full of busy talented quilters we was thinking how will we settle and get as good as some of these. But having the same passion was all you needed we sat down and people came by and had a chat and asked what we was working on and did we enjoy the course. Fast forward 11 years we really look forward to the two meetings a month with the bridge between the towns hence the name Bridge Quilters one meeting is held in Widnes then the other is held across the bridge in Runcorn. We have had many venues since it begun and many members come and go but we think we have a wonderful group and community now over 30 members 7 new members since lockdown we are all friendly welcoming and there for the fun laughter education, quilty fabric talk, laughter, compan
