Models
We’ve added even more fabulous features to create the
amazing Memory Craft 8900QCP and the Memory Craft
8200QCP Special Edition sewing machines. The sheer
length of the arm space at 280mm (11”) makes them
ideal for those larger projects.
With a great range of stitches and alphabets, 9mm stitch
width, pattern elongation up to 5 times standard length
and a built-in AcuFeed system for precise fabric handling,
these models can meet every sewing challenge. Then add
an easy change needle plate to enhance straight stitch
performance, a new easy set bobbin system, an automatic
needle threader, an easy bobbin winder, a maximum
speed controller and a start/stop button if you choose
not to use the foot control and you start to realise how
complete these machines are. You can rest assured they
offer spectacular stitch quality at speeds up to 1,000
stitches per minute and there is even a memory to store
stitch combinations, a knee lifter and a remote thread-
cutter port on the MC8900QCP Special Edition!
It doesn’t matter whether you are quilting,
dressmaking, crafting or making home
furnishings, with creativity this easy
you’ll just want to get started.

Mandy Munroe
Our bold cover project has
been designed by regular
contributor, Mandy Munroe.
Read our interview with her on

Welcome to my
fi
rst issue as editor of Popular
Patchwork, it has been a hectic and exciting month
putting this issue together and I hope you enjoy it.
It was fantastic to meet so many of you at
Festival of Quilts
and thank you for all
your good wishes. I think you are right, I am going to really enjoy being part of the
Popular Patchwork community!
For those I haven’t yet met I thought I would tell you my quilting story. My

background is in printed textiles and I dabbled with stitch, but it wasn’t until a
chance encounter on a dressmaking summer school that I got hooked. I
fi
nished my
garment early, and made a patchwork bag using some vintage fabric I had hoarded.
Something just clicked, and I was well and truly addicted to combining print, pattern
and colour. I spent two years attending a quilt sampler course, and then continued
studying City and Guilds for four years. Since then I have run a quilt fabric shop,
taught classes, designed quilt patterns, written a book and given talks to quilt
groups. I have a great interest in quilt history, and in 2010 wrote a paper called Print
with Print; The Role of Liberty in the post 1960s UK Quilt Revival.
As someone who always has a quilt (or
fi
ve) on the go, I am really looking forward to
