Another finished Kiwi Quilt-had a quick lesson in doing scappy stars.
I have been off line the last week or so. Cyclone Yasi the biggest Cyclone Category 5 tore through the area on 3rd February. We were very lucky as the eye moved slightly south so devestation was not as bad. Where it went throug at Mission Beach/Tully 1 in 3 homes were destroyed or damaged. We had lots of trees down, lost power for over 2 days but we were safe. The devestation is huge. They even evacuated the hospitals here. It is just too much to take in for a lot of people-hopefully or I intend to make some quilts but would even love to support a quilter who has lost it all with fabric etc to get them going again.
Hope you enjoy the picture.
I have started doing Barbara Brackmans Block of the Week Civil War Quilts and really enjoying the blocks and the history behind it all-gave me another excuse to get $100 worth of Reproduction Fabrics from Keepsake Quilting as there is not a huge range over here!1
Love to all- you are all so kind and thoughtful
