So I enjoy watching what all of you are doing.
I amy make one smaller block of each and make a wall hanging. We'll see.

Now that sounds very nice. I am not sure you need to make them smaller as they are about 4 1/2" each , thinking that would be 3 three across and 4 down.. with sashing and a small border would not be that large for a wall hanging>?

Bill,
Your trip to Cuba sounds interesting! Do tell us about Cuba and I know you'll be checking out the quilt scene there as well. Those of us from the US aren't allowed into Cuba, so this is very intrigeing! Do share your adventure in Cuba, from what I've seen, it's absolutely beautiful and the people are just wonderful!
Kind Regards,
MaryAnna
PS. Yeah, I know I need to get busy on my quilting...much going on in my life right now, but will be quilting by next week. And Hopefully posting pix.

MaryAnna,,
Cuba is just one of the most beautiful places....Varadero, where I've been twice before, is known to have the most beautiful beaches in the world...they are magnificent with the turquoise ocean...and the people are just the warmest of people.....during the first trip we made friends there....and have been able to enjoy meals with them and their family in their home - it's wonderful to get out to the outside villages rather than just stay put in the resort....get to know the people..see how they live....
Last year when I was there I picked up a wonderful yo-yo piece at a local market - I think that one day it will be come a part of a wonderful pillow.. Cuba doesn't have a great retail market for things like fabrics and stuff..but I hope that perhaps this time I will be able to come back with some more things that will become a part of some patchwork creations..I would like to find some pieces there perhaps......
For Americans, it's actuall not illegal for you to visit Cuba..but you're not allowed to spend any money there :-)..Which makes things a bit complicated..but I understand that there's quite a few Amerians that visit each year anyways..I saw a website on that somewhere - will try to find the link...
If you google Varadero, Cuba, you will find the town where I'll be for the 2 weeks...1 week I will be at the BLAU VARADERO resort, the other week at the MELIA LAS AMERICAS
resort.....you can actually see more about Cuba, Varadero and the resorts on Tripadvisor.com

Well Bill,
I will have to live out the Cuba fantasy vicariously through you. Unfortunately 'due to travel restrictions' there are no flights ever to Cuba from the USA....so the only way I can get there is perhaps to travel from another country, and then I'm thinking my passport won't be accepted in Cuba. I'll google Varadero and look at the wonderful pictures.
Kind Regards,
MaryAnna

Hi MaryAnna,,,,
Come on up and I'll pack you in an extra bag :-)......
I am going to try to find some patchwork people when I'm there...I would love to find a quilt top at least - let's see if I can do that this time :-)

Well everyone,,,,it's March 29th...just 2 days and we will have a new row to do - I wonder what April will bring - April shows perhaps - an umbrella, what about a flower for Spring.....but then we still have Easter..perhaps Egges, a basket - a chick.....

I hope everyone is having fun so far - with their first 3 months....I can't wait to get to work on row #4......

Hugs to everyone..

Bill
