★★★★★I was really surprised how quickly it came together, plus, the video tutorial from @ruthdevosart was invaluable in putting this together, especially for me with extremely limited experience with curved piecing.

Kids Book Review
★★★★★This book is gorgeous. I read it cover to cover because it's a lovely read and full of inspiration. The techniques are very well explained and easy to learn. Most importantly to me, this book is about learning a process and methodology that can be used for everything.
Sam
★★★★★I’m about 85% through the piecing and I have to say the quality of this pattern is outstanding. Every piece has fitted together perfectly, the instructions are incredibly easy to follow and the pattern has been surprisingly easy to sew on my sewing machine. Yes every seam, even the S curves, the half circles, and across the tops of the blossoms. I didn’t even have to ease these sections which was a total surprise.

I’m an award winning artist, a quilt-pattern designer, and a published picture book illustrator.
I’m so grateful that you’re visiting my site. Really, I’d love to meet with you in person over a cuppa in my studio, but right now this will have to do! I’m enjoying the creative journey that God has led me along since childhood. For as long as I can remember I have had a burning desire to make, stitch, draw and capture. I am thankful every day for the opportunities, new friends, varying creative endeavours, and endless opportunities to learn new things that are part of this wonderful journey.

My illustration work has grown out of my regular drawing habit, researching and planning new textile artworks. So thankful for this development, as illustrating picture books is such a joyful process.
