Liz's New Zealand Adventure

Liz's New Zealand Adventure - When daughter Liz came back from a trip to New Zealand, she brought me some fabric! Naturally I had to make her a quilt to document some of her adventures. There is a block with a horse, to commemorate riding on a beach in NZ. Another block shows her in an innertube, "black water" rafting through a cave, with glow worms shining on the ceiling. I added Hokey Pokey ice cream, NZ flora and fauna...and even a pair of legs with flies buzzing around so she wouldn't forget those annoying sand flies! Patterns were from various sources and when I couldn't find a pattern for what I wanted, I made one up. It was a really fun quilt to make and Liz loves it.
