Anyone from N.T. or W.A.  coming?


And look what arrived in the mail last week.
Books!!
By Jo Morton.

A box full, very generously donated by Jo.


l have decided to put these here for pre -sale.
If you want to buy any of them, l will put your name on them and keep them aside for
you to collect over the weekend of Quilts In The Barn.
Jo will also sign them if you want.
There is only 6 of each book available , so it's first in, first served.
All proceeds from the sale of these books are going directly to Breast Cancer Research.
And that means every cent!!

If loads more people want them, l will have Jo post me another box,
so please let me know in the next few days, or you will miss out.


This book, Coming Home, is full of wonderful projects.
For sale at $37.


This book, Remembrances,
 has loads of inspiring projects.
For sale at $33.


This book, Timeless,
is another you will want in your collection.
For sale at $25.


This is Jo's most recent book, Banner Day.
Full of great ideas and projects, all 16 of them.
For sale at $35.

If its fabrics you are after, take a look here at The Quilted Crow's blog.
They have just had  a stack of boxes of Jo Morton fabric delivered,
and l have managed to convince them to bring them all over on the boat!! 
Leonie tells me they will have over 100 different Jo fabrics for sale!!!



 Many of the quilts in these books will be on display at the exhibit,
so you will get a first hand, closeup look at them.
This is going to be our best ever Quilts In The Barn.
l know l can't wait!!!!



Thanks for visiting.
Linda.

  1. Thanks for a great opportunity Linda. I would like a copy of Remembrances for me and a copy of Timeless for our quilt group. I will definitely be at the exhibition to pick them up. If you can only give me one, then it would be Remembrances please.
