What a nice package you got from quiltjoey. I couldn't enlarge it but I did look on the website and what an intricate design.
I had a neighbor in NH that was Scottish but lived in England. She then married a US military and came to the states 33 years ago. She still has her accent. I did travel to England and Germany when I was 19. The Berlin Wall was up then and we did take a bus trip into East Berlin. Very dreary, but I loved the whole trip.
