24.01.2022 Sunday night sewing clamshells #shiraleestitches #reproductionfabrics #epp #englishpaperpiecing

22.01.2022 Great opportunity here Did you miss out on our very popular Shiralee Elegance BOM program? I know I had to turn away lots of ladies after all our places filled. Well.... there is good news... From all the remaining fabrics in the beautiful Jardin de Versailles range which I used in the latest Shiralee Elegance quilt, I have managed to assemble a few special packs to enable you to recreate this quilt fairly close to the original. Each bundle contains ... * pattern, papers & templates * the border print * a substantial fabric bundle of many of the prints * a layer cake of Jardin de Versailles * binding fabric AND.. as a special bonus, I will include close-up photos of each of the 9 blocks from the quilt Bundle price is $358 + p&h Be really quick as I only have 8 bundles to offer... Please order online to avoid missing out due to communication delays. https://shiraleestitches.com.au//shiralee-elegance-specia/ See more

22.01.2022 .. I can’t help but want to share this close-up photo of the English Paper Pieced periwinkle star which features in the centre of my Lady Margaret quilt. The design with the combination of the feature fabrics and the creams and then the shirting diamonds, was cemented in place when ‘Margaret’ rotated the cream periwinkle (accidentally) by one turn during our Tuesday sewing session one day! funny how a small action can have such wonderful positive gains. The movement it... gave to the stars was just perfect. Lady Margaret is being offered as a BOM program,with a small intake, so it will be a special project indeed in the exact same fabrics as the original. Places are filling quickly and the start date is mid September. All the details are on the website https://shiraleestitches.com.au//lady-margaret-quilt-bom-/

22.01.2022 Can you guess who Lady Margaret, is visiting this weekend??? Why @yarravalleyquilting of course!.... and they are having so much productive fun together This is my latest quilt design.. soon to be starting as a 10 month BOM program, $66/month + $25 template set at the start (postage extra) Interested? Please contact me and I’ll add you to my list.. this lovely program will be starting next month #shiraleestitches #shereemackintosh #yarravalleyquilting #customquilting #newbom #shiraleestitchesladymargaretbom

19.01.2022 Lady Margaret hopped outside for a photo shoot today as we are about to start the BOM program this week .... such differing lights/colours on the 2 photos...

17.01.2022 Oh my.. I am so excited to be able to offer you the full collection of Anne’s English Scrapbox by Di Ford Hall for Andover. This is a super special range as it is the last range Di designed before her sad passing earlier this year. That being the case, my next big BOM program will be yet another of Di’s designs (Ann’s Legacy),using predominantly fabrics from this range. More on that later.... These beauties are on a truck and on their way, so as soon as they jump out of t...he boxes, your orders will be cut and despatched as fast as I can. There are full bundles (FQ, F8, and half metre) options on the website as well as metrage of all of the 35 prints. I’m tipping this range will sell super fast and follow-up stocks will be many many months away, so please get in quickly if you want some... or consider the BOM ..which I’ll try to offer more info on very soon. https://shiraleestitches.com.au//annes-english-scapbox-by/ See more
