Yes, that's her.

Inspirations, not Illustrations ;-) The projects are gorgeous but I wish they'd
feature fewer designs with pink roses.

Maybe pink roses are to Australians what hearts are to Americans?

Good point. Perhaps someone from down under will tell us if that's so.

Is there a motif that permeates South African designs?

I must admit I have never been aware of an abundance of pink roses in
Inspirations magazines ....also I just found my issue No 60 with the
wonderful illustrations of
Janet Bridgland which are truly unusual and charming.

Looks like I put it away unread, pity, the two visiting grand-children (6 &
10) who returned home to Tasmania yesterday could have had fun making the
little felt koalas.

They both really enjoyed cutting their own designs from felt and sewing them
on the sewing machine for the first time, previously they had sewn only by
hand.

Many of the projects seem to be prim and proper or done in muted colors. Is
this what sells in needlecraft shops in Australia?

I don't want to cute or cutesy but I'd love it they expanded their repetoire
(sp??) to quirky ;-)
