I'm far too old to water ski now too! ;)

I think I'm just not a black and white person, I needed some brightness in it. I absolutely love it with the butterflys. Unfortunately a friend of mine loves it even more so she's going to get it for christmas. :? Still, it's given me more ideas for other things, so onwards and upwards!

Yip, know Amberley and love shopping in Rangiora, a new quilt shop there and a lady selling some nice quilting fabrics in Cust and a small shop in Darfield now too, so lots of lovely country stores to browse in. I love chasing the op shops for retro fabrics and scraps for my country scrappy quilts, I am only a beginner but just love my new found hobby!
Nice talking to another Kiwi quilter, just had to ask when I saw your Avatar as our local Pukeko swamp hen.
Take good care now,
Gal

That upper corner with the butterflies is just beautiful, Blue.

Blue..I love how you incorporated the ribbon in with the butterflies...it is beautiful!

I still have the "clean up" to do on this, like re-measure and trim.....and I have to fix the lower righthand corner, as it doesn't want to lie flat. I tried to find as many batiks as I could to closely match the colors in the center and other borders. The pattern is called "Tesselated Cats" by Quilter's Cache/Marcia Hohn.

Well, ladies, tomorrow is our mailing date. Is everyone ready? Any problems or questions? This will be our last one....and I can't believe this year has sped by so quickly.

I'm afraid mines gonna be a little late, partly because my life is a bit hectic, and partly because I got it late. I've got the fabric, and *think* I know what I'm doing. I'm hoping to get it out by the end of the month though. Sorry :-(

I think there'll be a few that are late.... remember we had that big ash cloud stop a whole lot of flights for a whole lot of time, so quite a few took longer to get where they were going.
