Now, who to tag? Brenda! Lynelle! Kirsty! Sarah & Kathy! And YOU, if you quilt - leave a note in the comments so I can enjoy your version.

As Nola remarked, it's amazing to see how much you've done, when you tick 'em off like this...

It makes a great list, doesn't it? I'm sure we both did seminole for the same reason - that challenge group! I like the little addenda - I didn't think to do that much on my list. The Shack rafflers, the fabric I dyed myself (once was enough, now I buy them from friends who love to dye fabrics!)- it's like a potted history of your quilting experiences.

Thanks for the tag, R. I've KIND OF done it!! I chose a variation instead ;-)

ps when are you going to give us some more clues about YOU?? Did you see my tag for you? Some creative anonymity shouldn't be hard!!
