Here is a closeup of one of the blocks...
I'm from the South ... GGTAW (Greater GTA-West)!!
Do I see kittens on your quilt, HuntAnnette?
Being Newb, I'm learning the ways of this Board.
Is there a way to get a better look at them?
As in click and enlarge?

She instilled upon me, always always must press open and make sure they match. So had to re-learn lots and am still learning more all the time.
Just moved from N.Ontario to Sask. Welcome you are going to love this board.
I learned about taking out seams, thanks to her. If it didn't match she made us re-do it til it was right. At the time, HATED it, though appreciate it all the more now, as often get compliments on my precision work.
Off and on over the years I have sewn and pieced quilts. It's become more of a passion and obsession the last few years. Just never enough time to do all the ideas I have. Thus UFOs abound!! And the stash builds :)
Which makes me wonder why I had not found you lovelies til now??
PS ... any other Canadians here?
