“I love Irene’s patterns, they’re well written and easy to follow. I usually use similar fabrics, but even when I’ve used a different palette the designs work in any fabric. I’ve also taken a Zoom class with Irene where she shows her process so clear and is very encouraging. I made my first Focus on Quilts pattern for my sister’s 60th birthday and loved it - as does my sister. Since then I’ve finished another four of Irene’s patterns including Block of the Month programmes, started quite a few more quilts which are all at different stages of completion, and the rest are on my wish list.”
