New Digital Patterns | Inspirations #65

13TH AUGUST 2021 - ASU #295

As we continue to work quietly behind the scenes to release as many digital patterns from past issues of Inspirations magazine as possible, it might seem logical that we do them in issue number order, but there is method in our madness!

Our first priority is to create digital patterns for projects that aren’t just out of print but are also the most popular and/or hard to get hold of. Plus, we’re also continually responding to special requests, so if there are any past projects you’d like to see digitised, let us know!

This week, we’ve added the missing three projects from Inspirations issue #65.

First Love is a gorgeous, embroidered quilt that is perfect for those embroiderers who are passionate about quilting. This heirloom project by Jill Newton includes appliqué flowers and a beautiful, embroidered border in a subtly coloured quilt filled with intricate detail. Whether you hand or machine quilt, this will be a project to enjoy.

The Little Rag Doll by Susan O’Connor is an adorable doll with a cheeky embroidered face, a tumble of curly brown hair and a lovely patchwork dress. Any child will cherish this handmade toy, which is sure to be loved for years to come.

Finally, we complete Inspirations issue #65 with Bounty, a floral sampler designed by Betsy Morgan. This beautiful sampler features surface embroidery on a sturdy linen twill and allows the embroiderer to practise a range of different stitches while working a collection of plants and flowers.

If you’ve ever hoped to make any of these projects but simply haven’t been able to find a copy of issue #65, now is the time. Purchase and download any of the patterns from this issue today.
