Kate Henderson Quilts

From Deniliquin, back to Melbourne for a quick shuffle and then up to Moranbah. That’s 2,400km/1,500 miles this show has got to cover before opening at Coalface Gallery on Friday!

I’m willing it on… I can see it’s got as far as the Far North Queensland sorting facility at the moment 🤞🏻

Big thanks to everyone who has supported the show so far. I’m so excited to have this one going to Queensland ☀️

I’m even more excited that I’ll be following it not too long after opening to teach the accompanying class at Flaggy Rock then two days later at Moranbah. It’s then back to Melbs for the same class at Kensington Neighbourhood House on the 23rd (see my website for the local details).

My with a gathered skirt.
I love this! The only think I'd change if I made it again would be to take the pleat out of the back of the top.
Pattern from
I designed the fabric and had it printed. You can find it on Spoonflower on a few colourways!

Flower Collage fabric designs - I got one of these printed over summer and I've just cut out a dress to sew. I've played around with a few colourways and put them up Spoonflower - the link is in my bio.
Hopefully I'll have a finished dress to share soon.

I've been playing around in Illustrator over the summer holidays and thought I'd get a few of my designs printed on fabric - these are both from - the one on the left is lawn and the one on the right is poplin. They both feel great and I'm really happy with how the colours turned out. Now to wash and sew them up!

Nina's Flowers - a jelly roll quilt pattern.
I first made this quilt 15 years ago and I love this pattern just as much now. I've rewritten and updated the pattern and it's now available in my shop.
The fabric is Flower Power by Maureen McCormick for Moda.
