Book description
Lynette Anderson's country cottage garden provides the
inspiration for her beautiful quilting and stitchery
designs. Soft, smudgy colours set off the nine garden-themed
blocks nicely in this delightful 31in (79cm) square quilt.
A
sample project from Country Cottage Quilting.
Lynette Anderson's love affair with textiles began at a young
age when her grandmother taught her to embroider and knit. Patchwork
caught Lynette's attention in 1981 after the birth of her first son,
and her affirmity with textiles is apparent in her work. Moving with
her family to Australia in 1990 prompted the release of Lynette's
first patterns in 1995 and during the ensuing years Lynette has
produced hundreds of patterns. Lynette's distinctive, yet
sophisticated naive design style encompasses quilts, pillows, bags and
sewing accessories. Lynette was very excited when she was asked to
design fabric for Lecien with whom she launched her first line
'Summertime Friends' in 2010 with 'Scandinavian Christmas' and 'Secret
Garden' following in 2011. Lynette's first book for David &
Charles, It's Quilting Cats & Dogs, was published in 2010.
