Hettie's Patch

David Butler's New Fabric Range

I saw this quilt at quilt market in November last year and just loved it, so.............. I ordered the whole range of 24 pieces.  Quess what!!! It has arrived.

Fabric is priced at $21 per metre.

David Butler is Amy Butler's husband... what a creative team.

This is his first range of fabric called 'Curious Nature' and this pattern is a free download on the Free Spirit website. If you would like to make this quilt in his fabric, let us know and we can kit it for you and print off a pattern (at no cost).

I haven't yet worked out a cost but I will do so, soon.

A stunning quilt that looks fabulous 'in the flesh'!!

 

Afternoon Tea

A very nice customer bought afternoon tea for us on Saturday.  I have to say, this was the most delicious fruit tart we have ever eaten.

Shaped like an apple and glazed, with a custard base, it was so nice that when I went to get the leftovers it was gone.  I think my husband inhaled it as he walked past. 

I must find out the Bakery name as I definately would like to have it again.

Thank you Ned!!!
