Lotti,
And Rosemary, "naughty" might be great fun--let's see it!
The back story - over Easter we visited Stonehenge, Avebury and passed by at least one of the 'white horses' in the Vale of the White Horses. These are hill carvings where the top soil is very shallow and you are quickly down onto the chalk subsoil. One at least is from the late Bronze Age (Uffington) and the rest from 1780's through to the present day, and I thought that they could make an interesting quilt designs. I then started trying to remember other chalk figures and came up the the 'Cerne Abbas Giant', who compared to the 'Long Man' is definitely 'naughty'.
