Here's a round up of my favourite hand-sewing needles and the best needles for different types of stitching, including English paper piecing, applique and big-stitch quilting with perle thread.
Using the right needle can set you up for a great sewing experience, and really improve the neatness of your stitches - so read on.
Here's all the details about the Sewing for Sanity workshops being held in Coonamble in June, and how to get involved.
Brittany Lloyd from Lo and Behold Stitchery is celebrating the release of her latest pattern with a quilt-along, and we've got your fabric sorted.
Vintage Lace is an elegant, and modern quilt pattern using half-square triangles.
The Vintage Lace Quilt-along started this week, but I know that there are still some of you out there searching for your fabrics so you can get started.
Because there are so many different colour options to explore with this design (you should really check out Brittany's blog post ), and three different quilt sizes, I haven't listed a specific kit in the shop
Kona cotton fabric to make the throw size quilt like Brittany's is just $120
Get in touch if you would like a kit for the same look and feel as the pattern, or would like to develop a custom kit in other shades to fit in with your decor. You can check out our enormous range of Kona cotton solids here.

PDF Patterns are available for immediate download from Brittany. You can purchase a copy here.
An update on the Cog + Wheel templates.
One piece has been flipped and is labelled from the back.
As you need to cut both right facing and reversed pieces for your quilt block, the templates supplied are still completely accurate and suitable for use.
