Yes, Applekrisp, I'm in Suffolk, England (Ipswich, to be exact). It's going to be mayhem getting around in London next week when the Olympics begin and I'm rather dreading it as I'm going to Cornwall on Wednesday! It means getting across London by Tube between two railway stations and I'm feeling quite nervous about missing my connection! I shall be taking Jacqueline's Quillow to her (another of my projects, if you haven't seen it yet). Best wishes Patricia

Oh, Andrew had his apartment in Ipswich, that is where they sent him first and had him traveling to London till finally he had enough and moved to the Docklands, he was there for several years and then moved into London proper for a couple year and just moved home to Squaw Valley, California this past December. They keep flying him back every month on business so he's getting his sky miles in! And I get lovely tins of biscuits every month!

Wow -- AlyxRansom here (I don't know why I'm not showing up) -- these are SO great! Love them. I especially love that you posted what the primary fabric actually looks like... amazing what you've done.

I've looked at your website and blog and have found the book you recommended for "Stack 'n' Whack" on Amazon. Thank you for the advice. Can't wait to try it myself!

Pat, you will have so much fun with it! Can't wait to see what you make. Are you in the UK? My son use to live in Suffolk. He's back and forth to London every month right now with work. I love it over there...although I'll take a pass during the Olympics, too crazy for me.

This is going to be absolutely stunning! Is there sashing between the blocks?

I really MUST learn to do this - it's absolutely spectacular. Can't wait to see your finished quilt. I know it's going to be a knock-out!
