Thanks everyone.

Here is the Group´s web site, we are in a very small white village called Viñuela and this is where we hold our Tuesday meetings, we are up to 40 ladies now, who knit crochet, make lace, cross stitch and best of all Patchwork.

Heres the web site address

Daryl will be doing a tutorial shortly so I will let you all know when it is up and going, there is no actual pattern just directions on how to make the shape which is fairly easy BTW.

glad you like it enough to have a try at it.

I am going to present this idea to our group as theme for our 2012 exhibition because I am so impressed with the idea and presentation. We have a theme each year, and we try to be different each time. This idea fits the bill very nicely, so thank you for sharing. Beautiful work.

Beautiful fans. I too will be looking forward to a tute on these. I especially love the oriental themed ones. Although, that leaf project was looking pretty interesting too, and then, I love birds, bet one with birds would be neat.....Hmmmmm
