It's Sunday again - and today I'd like to introduce you to Rebecca, the wonderful creative mind behind Chasing Cottons! She's one of the most inspiring bloggers I know - she has a very special and touching story behind her passion that you can read in her own words here.
Rebecca creates and blogs from the Central Coast of Australia, and she has the most marvelous creations! Not only does she design quilts (I'll show you those in a minute!) but take a look at these....

| There's a tutorial for these great pot-holders here.... |

| And she'll even show you how to do curved seams in her Sew Mama Sew tutorial for this fabulous birdcage pillow! |
There's even a tutorial on her blog for how to pin-baste a quilt - something that can come in really handy when you're trying to work it out for yourself!
