Shirley O and Purple Poppy Claire

Bonkers Postbag!

10th August 2025

Just a couple of days now until I head off to meet up with fellow Arty Fartists at the Bazaar show in Sussex, and I have some more lovely pieces to add to our quilt and take with me - this time, they’re both from the UK.

Shirley O created two gorgeous pieces, crazy patchworks of recycled Indian textiles from Bazaar, which she’s encrusted with beautiful stitching, just fabulous. Claire’s square is very different but equally beautiful - a delicate teacup on a soft white background, stitched with a floral design, very pretty indeed. Both so different from each other and both will look totally wonderful on our quilt.
