Rockets Red Glare from Nestlings By Robin

LOOK what hit mailboxes

last week!!

The July issue is now out

and yours truly

has a new quilt within

titled, 'Rockets Red Glare'.

THANK YOU Connecting Threads for

at one of my designs and ask,

"who designed all this work?".

It's tedious piecing at this point because I'm matching up triangles with seams that don't nest. Lots of unpicking and finessing to get those triangle points to match up to my satisfaction! But meanwhile, my mind is on other projects, inspired by everything I see around me. If you're one of those sensible people who has made a resolution not to start ...
