I am a quilter living in Woodbridge, Suffolk who has made quilts since I was a teenager. I also ring bells! Both are great British traditions....I will try to feature some of my antique Welsh and Durham quilts, the quilts I make myself, my quilting activities and also some of my bellringing achievements. Plus as many photos as I can manage. NB: Double click on the photos to see greater detail, then use back button to return to the main page.

  1. A really interesting video. Thank you. She is such a vibrant speaker. I have never been to Jen's own shop, but it is on my list! Recently been to the Kaffe Fassett exhibition and lecture in Lampeter which was wonderful. Ann x

  5. Another reason I enjoyed Jen Jones is that she made me feel like my quilt making was good enough. It doesn't have to be perfect, just the fact that I created something counts.
