The fabric of choice seems to be Hope Valley from Denyse Schmidt, is this fabric available in South Africa?

WILD THING
You might wonder why I chose this name for a post, but that's the name for the wonderful pattern I used to create this pinwheel quilt. It was created by Thimble Blossoms and saw it by accident while I was roaming through photos on the flickr website. Whenever you need inspiration please browse http://www.flickr.com/.
The fabric I chose is called Tweet Tweet by Keiki. Very bright and cheerful...perfect for spring!
The materials needed are: 2 charm packs and 1-5/8 yard neutral fabric. I bought 2 charm packs of neutral fabric, instead of cutting the squares myself. It saves alot of time!
I can now add my name on the list of finished quilts on Camille's website: http://www.thimbleblossoms.com/.

Patchwork/Girly Quilt
It feels like ages, since I started working on this quilt. Basically to make a dent in the fabric scrap box.
I made a dent in the scrap box. (ha-ha!!) I also bought a bit of dots, checks, stripes....anything that would
compliment the pink animal fabric. It turned out beautiful, once the quilting was done by Dot's Quilts.
Please check out Dorothy's website: http://www.dotsquilts.co.za/ to find the most beautiful fabric.
And of course: they offer a wonderful longarm quilting service.
PS: Thank you once again, my wonderful 6 ft assistant for holding up the quilts...I love you!
