Thanks everyone for your kind comments. In answer to a few comments... I didn't buy the kits, just yardage in each shop and tried to always bring my purchases in to show & share with the ladies in the next shop, so repeating the same fabrics in some of the rows did help to keep it "kind of" coordinated. I did collect a few other rows but they just didn't thrill me. I may put them into a different project, or just chalk it up to another fun stop. The frogs were from a backing fabric I had purchased in the states one time, they are all in yoga positions. That block from the shop was a very basic hand drawn block that she wanted you to buy lily pad fabric for. I didn't like the colours of her fabrics so found mine...right in my own closet when I got home..... but then that block looked really plain so machine appliquéd those fun froggies.....now I like them! Finding some of these quilt shops "along" the way was fun.... some just over 600 kms off the highway.... DH enjoys our travels too.... will see if I have a pic of the frog fabric before it is cut up.
