This is the ‘beauties of nature’ from my book ‘A Field Guide’ which inspired my fabric collection. You can buy it here or here or ask your local quilt shop for it.   Thank you to every single one of you who left a comment on my previous post. I read and enjoyed every single one! […]

here’s the paper moodboard for my third book. I’ve had the idea (the hard bit). I’ve made the Pinterest moodboard (the easy bit). I’ve bought the fabric (the best bit?) and now I just have to make it all happen. The late nights start now.
