Thanks for the quick work on the Maple Leaf Block, OKsewglad! I have EQ5, but don't have much luck with it, always getting stuff designed, then lose them, or can't find them again. I don't know if the later EQ's are any easier, but I found EQ5 to be very difficult to learn. I also like the 1st block the best.

I can resize the Maple Leaf into an 8" block for us. With the 8" block and 9P based blocks is that 8" divided by 3 equals 2.6666666667 (2 2/3"). Not a very friendly quilitng fraction. Let me go back to EQ and get one done.
I know I have the Aussie flag fabric for mirabelle--but does anyone have an idea I could build on (like the tulip) for Australia. I've been playing with a PP sheep, but don't have all the kinks out. Maybe mirabelle doesn't want to be represented by a sheep. Any ideas there, Sheila?

I love the tulip block for Anael and the second Maple Leaf for QuiltE, I will definitely substitute two blocks for these and there is a Stars and Stripes blocks soon so that is for my US friends. A Sheep???? hmmmm the area I live in is predominantly sugar cane but the tourist area is called the "Great Green Way" and is represented by a green tree frog a Frog????hmmmmm. I might have to look for a PP'd rose
I love to read the chatter every morning, its like a daily fix.

Thank you, ladies, for all the great suggestions for the sensory quilt. I like the idea of pockets and some animals (maybe I'll just make tails since I can't applique). I'll check out what the mom wants; I get the idea she just wants something cuddlly for him to hang on to. Thank you--I knew I could count on yinz!
OK great job with the tulips and maple leaf blocks. I saved some pp animals. Let me check for a frog or kangaroo (if I can remember what I saved them under).

Wonder how many in Assisted Living would like to quilt a hot pad?? You may end up with a group quilting with you, Dublb. I know they usually like to interest the elder generation with different activities. I guess you can keep the machine humming along merrily doing the denim quilt...show us when you finish it.
