'Patch' by Cath Kidston
At the end of last week I was lucky enough to meet Cath Kidston herself at the Patch book signing event in Selfridges!...
and what a lovely lady she is...
After a little chat she signed my book, pictured above... I cant wait to get started with some of the lovely projects...
Patch is full of charming patchwork inspired crafts... including everything from pretty bags & cushions to appliqued tea towels... Whatever your level, there is something for everyone...
One of my favourites is the 'Floral and Spot Tote Bag'... a great everyday bag, in fun country style fabrics...
It even comes with all you need to make the delightful 'Dresden Plate Tote Bag' on the front cover... alternatively you can use your kit to make the attractive 'Dresden Plate Cushion'...
Both the bag and cushion use a variation of patchwork, quilting and applique... three of the main techniques used throughout the book...
A gorgeous read... also, if you are like me, and have a collection of pretty little fabric scraps, 'Patch' offers great ways to use them up in bright and fun projects...
Why not treat yourself...
