Tulip Twist is our latest foundation paper piecing Tulip Twist is our latest foundation paper piecing quilt block. This is such a bright and colourful block - I used Sugar range by Ruby Star Society which really makes the flowers pop!

This bock would look amazing in a bag, quilt, or table runner. The pattern includes 5 sizes (ranging between 2 inches and 6 inches) which makes it a really versatile pattern. Swipe to see the different way you can arrange the blocks.

Although I hate to admit it, my vision is not as g Although I hate to admit it, my vision is not as good as it used to be. I struggle to thread needles at night. When @sohmo invited me to road test their new collection of needles, I was intrigued to try the Easy Thread Needles. 

The needles have a clever indention on top of the eye - you push down with the thread and voila! A quickly threaded needle without the need for needle threaders etc. I am working on a new project with lots of buttons and the needle worked perfectly.

SOHMO Easy-thread needles include three sizes in the pack - 5 gauge, 6 gauge and 7 gauge and are suitable for quick mending tasks, sewing on buttons, and embroidery. 

These needles are pretty and practical! The best part is they come in super cute little tins with a sliding lid (I have a weakness for attractive packaging!) There are 5 different needle types available to suit a variety of needs. Needles are made in Japan and are strong and sharp.

Have you discovered a new sewing product recently? Please share below in the comments - I love learning about new sewing tools/gadgets to make life easier.
