The Tasmanian Devil pic on the white side of the bag was not in the collection so I searched for one because he is not in our Australiana collections and struggling for survival. My son has friend in Bali who's wife loves Tasmanian Devil cartoon so I found a pic for her too :idea: :-)

Gum leaf with berries.......Okay, makes perfect sense. I had misplaced a pair of my bifocals, and sometimes my sight's not so great, either. I like the cartoon Tasmanian Devil, too. Saw a film of a real live one, and he had all the charm of an irritated politician.

Hello gmcsewer - thank you for your message - the quilt is Sunflowers in Pam Bono's Big Book of Rotary Cutter Quilts I found some yellow wishy-washy pale yellow thin uneven stripe-ish varying towards deeper orange across the WOF so I fussy cut petals to get the natural grain in petal effect. I also have a couple more of Pam's books and free designs downloadable from her site. Sunflowers are happy flowers and seem to bring out the sunshine everywhere - enjoy making it. Regards Ada :lol:
