Oh What Tangled Threads Wallhanging

I have just completed this awesome wallhanging, totally inspired by my favourite fabrics from Whimsicals called Tangled Threads. I have loved this border fabric from the minute it arrived and was dying to make a wallhanging that would be the must do and must have for every country quilter. I designed the wallhanging using 8 spool blocks, with simple stitched verses across the block sashings futher complimented with a sawtooth border and finished off with the Tangled Threads border print fabric. I had a ball picking out fabrics to co ordinate and make the wall hanging POP! Finished size is 38" Square making it a great economical quilt as 1m wide pellon works well for the batting and 1m of co ordinating fabric it just perfect for the backing fabric, I used a cute design fabric from Whimsicals covered with buttons in a grey blue. The wallhanging is available as a pattern with border fabric piece for $24.95 or as a kit for $69.95 which includes pattern, all top fabric and binding fabric. Call in store to purchase yours today on 0357501522 or purchase online at www.countryheartnhome.com .

AN AUTUMN QUILTER'S GATHERING AT COUNTRY HEART & HOME


Since the sale of Homespun Memories and the addition of it to Country Heart & Home, we have been very busy filling up our shelves with endless new products, fabrics and kits. For those of you that have visited since our amalgamation you would see that we just don't have the space in our store for classes on a regular basis. Dianne and I have been wondering what we could do to get all our quilter's and sewers together for a weekend of craft, sewing, food and fun and It gives me great pleasure to offer you a wonderful Patchwork & Quilter's Weekend Retreat from Friday 20th May to Sunday 22nd May. This will be a weekend of catch up on UFO projects, help to get started on something new or start on one of the many projects we will have new and ready to go in Kit form. Dianne and myself will be here for all your quilting, sewing and crafting questions and help. We are of the strong philosophy that Quilting and Craft is about gathering together, sharing and laughing all in the one mix, so this will definitely be a fun weekend to relax and enjoy!

Less than a 2 minute walk to our store, which means Country Heart & Home will be open to you virtually 24/7, perfect for a late night dash to get some fabric or thread! Once you park your car you will not need to get into it for the whole weekend! How relaxing is that!!!
It's called River Lodge at the Bright Caravan and Camping Ground just off Cherry Street, first right off Delany Avenue after the Morses Creek Bridge. It has 10 rooms with 2 sets of bunks (2-4 people per room) Bathroom is shared between two rooms, very private, lovely and clean and bright and cheery.
