I made 6, but one (bottom right corner) is made with 2 blue fabrics (it will be a bonus for one of the winners). I thought it balanced the picture out, so I left it there. I enjoyed the ‘don’t have to think about it’ color scheme this...

Ladies – your blocks are on their way from New Zealand. They have a long way to go…Laurina

I put together 8 of these nice little blocks for the sneak peak. I used the flying geese/HST method (times 2) to make these. Originally, I was going to use the triangles in a square method, but some of my fabric pieces were not quite big enough – it was nice to have a choice of methods to suit. Either way, they went together quickly and I love the bright...

I had fabric picked out when I received the sneak peak, but I had to pack everything away because we were showing the house on the weekend. When I finally could sew (make a mess) I realized that none of the darker green pieces I had were big enough. So, I’ve gone for lighter greens which I love and I have many to choose from. As always, these are great blocks and will make an amazing quilt. I definitely think we will be seeing a few...

My 3 bead blocks have a long way to go from New Zealand to Israel. I dropped them in the mail today and hope they will arrive in 2 week’s time.

I sent three chevron blocks to Peggy today. Should take a week or two.

I put these blocks together for the sneak peak. I really love the bold graphic look. I only wish I had a bit more maroon in my stash – there’s only one fabric that qualifies. I am trying very hard to be disciplined and not buy any more fabric because I am supposed to be paring down and packing up this month; however, I will be vendor at a quilt and craft show in mid-Feb, so if the perfect maroon fat quarter leaps into my hands I...

Belinda and Elizabeth – your blocks are heading north and west from New Zealand. You should see them in a couple of weeks.

I love these blocks. Unfortunately I only have enough of the right colors to make these three. I know that they will make a great...

These looked so easy, but I admit I’ve been struggling to make the perfect 1/4″ seam lately and these really proved...

I mailed Laura’s basket yesterday. No idea when it might arrive, I’m sure there’s not much room on those airplanes this time of year.

Sent two leaves from New Zealand yesterday – you should see them in a week or two.
