Thank you to my Auntie Sue for having super focused eyes 👀🔎🔎🔎and for spotting one of my Madder Tidal cushion (all be it teeny!) in Septembers issue of Homes & Gardens Homes & Gardens . It is seen here in an apartment in London designed beautifully by Waldo Studio .....I thought it was worth a mention : - ) .....

A few more photos of Ray Quilt in a bit more detail. The little burnt orange hand sewn spots can seem to disappear in a photo.

Ray Quilt is now on my website 🌞

This quilt has been a joy to make up. I started it around 2 months ago and It has been through many stages from hand block printing it - to hand sewing it - hand embroidering the burnt orange spots into each square.

It's nice to stand back and look at it now. It is a quilt which fits a double bed but I can also just see it hung on a wall.

A magical evening spent up the allotment last week with Luisa Pazienti liz.honeybone (and another Liz who is not on this platform 🌞) experimenting, chatting, discussing all things natural dying.
