A little while back I
saw a blog hop featuring the ‘Bush Gum Blossoms’ line from Amanda Brandl Designs.
Amanda specialises
in Australiana fabrics and her designs feature Australian birds, animals and plants.
This line reminded me of the May Gibbs Snugglepot and Cuddlepie series of kid’s stories from my childhood and I’m a sucker
for my own personal nostalgia so promptly bought a fat quarter bundle.
When I was rummaging
through my stash to see what else might work with it I came across a yard of
chocolate brown solid and a charcoal text print and went to work to make the You’ve Got Mail quilt by
Missouri Star Quilt Company.
The tutorial shows how to make it using a layer
cake and there is a charm pack version as well, Love Notes.
The quilt top
finishes at 40 by 48 inches and is made up of 4 inch finished half square
triangle units.
Happy sewing
Sue
