Special offer to Quilters' Guild members

Here at Oakshott we’ve long cherished our association with the Quilters’ Guild and many of its members. Handmade has never been hotter and the Guild plays a vital role in promoting patchwork and quilting skills. We believe there’s a special humanity about handmade pieces – they evoke warm, fuzzy feelings in a way that mass-produced items never can.
So the next step seemed logical…

Colourshott Memory Game

Earlier this year we marvelled at the eight stunning designs that came out of a bloghop run by Lynne Goldsworthy (see the individual ones in earlier posts). Now we have drawn them together into one of our FREE ezines so you can choose which design to start with! Each quilt uses a selection from the 27 vibrant colours in a 10″ Square Pack of Colourshott 31-57 and the booklet tells you a bit about each designer and gives you the link to their pattern tutorial (covering topics like foundation piecing, 60 degree and half rectangle triangles, hourglass blocks, bias tape for appliqué, 6-patch trip around the world block).

So download the booklet here (or from the Instant Colour page, where you will find the others in the series) and meanwhile, have a go at matching the squares from each quilt off the front cover design:

Cheaper shipping

It’s a small world!

For a minimum spend of just £20 we can offer our Australian and New Zealand customers a flat rate courier shipping charge of £20 using TNT’s express service, which only takes 3-4 working days.

No excuse for not acting on that creative urge then…
