Popular Patchwork Magazine  |  Mar-16
Welcome to the March 2016 Issue of Popular Patchwork Magazine
Our marvellous March issue is packed with gorgeous projects and fantastic features. Our cover quilt
is Mandy Munroe’s Blanket Stitch Quilt. Inspired by the classic embroidery stitch it uses subtle-coloured solid fabrics to create a graphic effect. March means the arrival of spring, and we have some fabulous seasonal projects. Lynne Goldsworthy has combined elements from Chain Quilts and Dresden Plates to create a fresh and pretty Springtime Blooms quilt, and if you are looking for a quick seasonal project then look no further than the mini block Spring Bunting project from Ruth Lazarus. If you love bags you will not want to miss the quilt-as-you-go shopper from Judith Hollies. Perfect for making a dent in your stash, this sturdy bag is a handy size for the shops and will carry your groceries home in style!
We have a musical flavour to the issue with a project to make record placemats and coasters, an interview with a designer who took an iconic album cover and turned it into a personalised quilt and Ricky Tims chats about how his early career in music has influenced his quilts. In our regular Let’s Visit column Debbie von Grabler-Crozier takes us on a tour of Norwich and in Get Creative Gillian Cooper looks at using flour to create a batik effect on fabric.
We also launch our new quilt competition. With over £2000 worth of prizes this is not to be missed!
