Spectacular leftovers from an amazing photo-shoot yesterday for the quilt book. It will be published by Collins & Brown and I was very excited to find out that it will appear in January 2010 - earlier than I'd thought. And, after seeing the photos, I am looking forward to it even more. (The book will also contain plenty of my photos, but we needed someone special to do the full-quilt shots in a rather isnpired and wonderful location. And that is what we got.)
Three types of ranunculus and deep, dark tulips bought from New Covent Garden Flower Market at 6am yesterday. (Not by me.)
Gorgeous!

Those are so beautiful! I love all the color - especially when it's so dreary here right now.

Jane...I've been an admirer for some time of your blog, writings, food, yarn creations and more. It was probably a year ago I found you and lost you. I now have my own little blog called Blueberryplains and just came across you again...today... by accident. I still love it and have added you to my favs. Great work and the colors are as vivid as I remember in your blog!....Debbie

Am so glad your book release has been brought forward. Did you get your quilts stitched up super quick or is this just the decision of your publishers?

Now that's what I call a RIOT of colour. Can't wait to see the quilt if it's a reflection of the colours used. Roll on 2010
