Popular Patchwork - November 2017

With the festive season still a respectable way off, this issue of Popular Patchwork brings you an array of beautiful projects with a gentle nod to Christmas and plenty of time to make them. This stunning collection includes five exclusive quilts from some of your favourite designers. From traditional Scandi-chic to classic with a dash of modern-contemporary, there is a great mix of styles and techniques.

For smaller makes we have the super stylish Winter Bucket bag by designer Jemima Schlee- perfect for a Christmas shopping trip, some quick and simple decorations, an easy Advent calendar plus much, much more. Stuart Hillard brings you Part 3 of his mystery quilt and we also have the latest addition to our Block of the Month series.

Away from the sewing projects, don’t miss an exclusive interview with award winning author Tracy Chevalier. Tracy is the subject of this month’s Q&A and gives a moving account of working with the charity Fine Cell Work on their latest project ‘the Sleep quilt’, while Sophie Harper interviews Swedish designer Kajsa Kinsella about her latest designs, fabric collections and all things Scandi- firmly setting the tone for this delicious issue.
