Foreign Treats

I forgot to blog about two wonderfully exciting things that happened a few months ago. Marianne contacted me in August to ask if I would be interested in being interviewed for her three-page article in the October-November issue of the French magazine Quilt Country.

Of course I said yes! It was fun working with Marianne. She had so many interesting questions that I had never really thought about before! I think the article turned out fabulous. I'm planning on giving a copy to my Mom for Christmas. Thank you Marianne! I don't have any extra copies for sale but you can purchase your own copy.

I have added a copy of Quilt Country to my other foreign magazines that include articles about me. Britain, Russia & France... I find that quite exciting :o)

Another excitement happened in London... Liberty of London at Cafe Liberty to be exact! An online blog friend Kerry of VeryKerryBerry asked if she could use my Quilted Teacup pattern to make a sample to go with a Tea Cozy she had made for Liberty Fabrics. I couldn't decline such a sweet offer. She even printed and sewed one of my labels onto the bottom and included my pattern info. Thanks again Kerry!

I will leave you now with this lovely treat... a photo of an orange chiffon cake I made for a friend's birthday... if only you could smell & taste it!

Enjoy your afternoon tea & quilted crafts :o)
