Hi Stitchers,
This weeks design is this simple yet funny phrase.
A stitched version of this design was on display at the Usher Gallery in Lincoln for a local artists exhibit.

Hi Stitchers,

Is this chart with many similar symbols next to each other your worst stitching nightmare?
It is certainly one of mine! So here at Buzy Bobbins I take time to study the chart symbols and change them if any are too similar for ease of reading. :D

Hi stitchers,

Here is the very first pattern I designed for Love Quilts UK over 10 years ago. We were tasked with making a quilt with a Primrose theme. We could not find enough patterns containing primroses! So I decided to draw one to help out.
