My first post

Here's my blog.  It's open to anyone.  Mostly I will be blogging about my quilty pleasures.

I am a designer of quilt patterns. I design mostly for Northcott fabrics (www.northcott.net) and also have been published in a couple of magazines.  We sell my patterns and kits made from my patterns through our website www.fabricaddict.net .  We also sell wholesale to shops around the world.

All of our patterns are available in pdf to download, or as hard copy to be mailed out.

My favourite pattern is called "Sunburst"  The pattern retails for just $4.98:

My very favourite pattern yet.  This is a sample type of quilt.  EAch house has a different 6" block inside that can be customized to the interests of your family. This quilt will truly become a family heirloom.  The pattern is called "Love at Home" (its called "Love of Home" on Northcott's webiste).  The fabric line featured in this beautiful quilt is "Mulberry Lane" by Sue Beevers

Like horses?  This is a great quilt for the horse lover.  Made using "Stonhenge Canyon Ridge" by Linda Ludovico for Northcott.  This is "Attic Window Twist" because it is an "Attic Windows" done in an original way.

Well, this is a very long post.  I'd better head to bed.  In 40 minutes it will be my birthday.  I need my beauty rest so that I don't look a year older tomorrow!
