Create a stunning heirloom quilt that celebrates nature and the seasons.

Alice's Country Diary Quilt is a breathtaking fusion of English Paper Piecing (EPP), hand embroidery, and quilting, inspired by the beauty of the countryside. Featuring 25 unique embroidery designs, this quilt showcases delicate wildflowers and insects, framed by luxurious Liberty Tana Lawn fabrics - though any quilting fabric can be used.

This quilting project is perfect for quilters and embroidery lovers alike, offering a combination of hand-sewing techniques with a touch of machine piecing for final assembly. The quilt includes:
  • 25 intricate embroidered blocks plus 12 border blocks, creating a 68 x 68-inch masterpiece
  • 9 essential embroidery stitches and 40 DMC thread colors for rich, textural detail
  • Beautiful fabric prints in the bespoke EPP rings
  • Full step-by-step instructions for both stitching and quilt construction
  • Iron-on embroidery transfers to effortlessly transfer designs onto fabric


Beyond technique, this book is a work of art in itself, featuring the author's original botanical drawings and plant lore, adding a storytelling element to your crafting journey.

Whether you're a seasoned quilter or an embroidery enthusiast, Alice's Country Diary Quilt is an invitation to slow stitching, nature appreciation, and creative expression.
