Blog Notifications?

Do you receive my Blog Posts in your email?  The system that provides this service is going away soon. Unfortunately I haven't found a suitable replacement.

If you'd like to keep in touch with my 'doings' I send an 'occasional' newsletter where I talk about quilty stuff. 

I invite you to subscribe - it is easy, secure and I never share my list. I also don't inundate you with emails. I send my newsletter about twice a month.

You will also receive a Free Pattern Download when you subscribe (plus another helpful instruction sheet with some 'good math for quilters!).

Just enter your email on the right side of this Post - simple, quick and secure!

Another bonus....you will be first to know about new patterns and special offers that I only share in the Newsletter. 

Hope to see you there!

Hello Spring! A NEW Season and a NEW Store!

 The NEW Patchworks Studio Website and Store are LIVE!

It has been a long time coming but I am happy to say....my new and improved online shopping experience is better than ever.

  • All patterns are available as downloadable PDFs.
  • Most patterns are also available as printed patterns that can be mailed to you.
  • The functionality is so much better: search by 'pattern type', 'skill level', and more.
  • More options for payment processing that ensure security of your data.
  • Many more patterns have been added! Check some of them out below.
  • All my Tapa Cloth fabrics (Banyan Batiks) can also be ordered online.
  • Quilt Shops can place pattern orders online - let your local shops know!
Here are some of my most recent patterns - but there are plenty more online!

There will be more items added over the next few months so....watch this space for updates. (Click the picture for details.)





Hope you will enjoy touring around my new website!

Hand Painted Batiks - AMAZING!

Have you seen batiks with such a wide range of colours that you wonder how in the world it is done? How DO they get those flowers onto this cloth?

Check out this video showing how the upcoming Flower Power fabrics from Banyan Batiks are made. So interesting to see all the steps involved to achieve this unique collection.


You can see all the different Flower Power fabrics (and tonal coordinates) here:


Love these? Tell your local quilt shop they can order Flower Power from Banyan Batiks! 


I already have a few quilt designs I want to make with these. 

Or a summer top or skirt would be great too since these will be in stores next June!

We're MOVING!....So the SALE is ON!

 I hope you and your family and friends are safe and well.

Our family are managing well. My husband worked from home for several months and is now back at his office, following all social distancing protocols. Both my daughter and son and their families are doing very well too. For all of this I am very thankful!


You saw the 'headline' for this Blog Post, right? 'We're Moving!'

No, not moving our home, fortunately. But the Patchworks Studio website is moving. My hosting company is closing (due to non-Covid reasons) so I have to move to another option. To make this more simple....
