Is your heating on now? Mine is! I’m notoriously nesh which goes right against my celtic roots, but might explain one of the reasons for my passion for authentic British textiles. If any excuse were needed to wrap up warm in a cosy British Woollen Blanket or a sumptuous Harris Tweed Quilt now the chilly mornings & cold nights are here, now is the time you can truly indulge in some delicious cosseting at home.

This soft felted blanket measures 200cm by 150cm so looks great on a double or kingsize bed as well as being an ideal sofa throw to keep at hand to combat any chills.

The new BIG Fair Isle design blankets 100% British Made are woven in Lancashire from Yorkshire wool.

Hand made unique distinctly British Harris Tweed quilt

Personally I love autumn

the leaves turning, the brisk mornings and warm sunny days at this time of year. Of course, this is an ideal version of the marvelously problematic British weather which like many Mancunians I can be ever so slightly obsessive about (the weather&Manchester!) However, quilts come into their own in autumn and as well as brightening up a room with a colour pop of colour on the back of the sofa, or as a eye catching runner at the end of a bed, now you can start using them too!

Rufus the cat keeps cosy in a quilt

With cosy autumnal days cuddling up in a quilt in mind, I am taking my quilts (cushions&more!) to several markets and shows in the forthcoming months. Check out my What’s On at Quilt Towers page for more details. I’m next at Altrincham Market on Sunday 30th September See you there?
