Hearts and Flowers

A beautifully bright quilt where wool tweed is mixed with cotton to create a stunning effect. It also includes cotton applique to create a simple folk art inspired feature around the quilt border.



Grandad's Coat

This simple, one-block quilt uses heavyweight wool tweeds to create a really cosy quilt – perfect for snuggling up in during the cold, winter nights.



Seeing Red

This a vibrant quilt made from a mixture of bright red, orange, pink and purple tweeds. There are appliqué hearts and flowers for extra detail.



Warm Heritage

This quilt was inspired by utility quilts and, therefore, uses different thicknesses and weights of woollen fabric. To finish off this unique quilt Margaret added some antique buttons and tie quilted it with yarn.



Floral Vase

This beautiful medallion quilt combines tweed and cotton to create the appliqué designs.
