Tutorials and Patterns

So this is the tutorial / pattern page. Here you will find some lovely inspiration for future projects. In a way this is the corner of the blog where I get to show you my future aspirations, not only in terms of the items themselves, but also in terms of the expertise I would need to have in order to make them, so in a way, they represent also my growth as a quilter/crafter.
Regarding the tutorials, I will try to show you some of the people who have taught me so much without even knowing who I am, so in a way, this particular page is also a tribute to so many artist I admire and follow through their blogs.

Ok, so I'll start off the page with one of my favorite pattern, which I can't wait to try out. Aunt Spicy presented it to me (or to all of us who follow her lovely blog) and I'm hooked!

May I present (or reintroduce) The Patchwork Scottie Dog pattern by Denyse Schmidt @ http://www.dsquilts.com/

Aren't they lovely???


Also, an advanced project I intend to try in a couple of experience levels away is the amazing Amy Butler Blossom Handbag/ Shoulder Bag free pattern found at the great Sew, mamma, Sew! Blog

Actually, I love anything Amy Butler does, so if you love it too, visit her Page and check out the patterns. They also have a couple lovely ones for free!
