The group blog of four quiltmakers and textile artists scattered around the world in 4 countries and across three continents.
Our aim is to create a small quilt every three months.
The theme is chosen by the members in turn.

'Nelson's Y-fronts' - now I really can't wait! For those of you who don't know (though with the World Cup Soccer on in South Africa at the moment, that's hard to believe) this is the rainbow nation's flag.
Pamela, I am showing my ignorance now - who was Betsy Ross please?
how interesting - she was quite a gal!! well, not only did i STITCH this flag, but i had no blue fabric, so i painted the blue in order to complete my own hand-made, Y front, SA flag! VIVA
