As with most quilters, I am always on the lookout for quilty stuff when I travel, quilt books, fabric etc. and it is a bit of a challenge to find actual Aussie design fabrics, not iconic or ethnic Aborigine, but simply Aussie designed - then there is the high price of fabric in the "Great Southland", usually Au.$20 and up compared to our $10 or so in the USA.
On one of my visits in recent years I found this lovely kit, at a really good price and it has sat in my stash for a couple of years until I sort of ran out of projects I could work on up here in the mountains.
The illustration that came with the kit isn't very accurate color-wise, but here's a better view of the fabric selection.
And here is my progress to date.
PS. My Stash NYB quilt got a ribbon at Black Canyon Quilt Show over the weekend!
