Tail Feathers Blocks 7 and 8

Hope you're not sick of seeing my Tail Feathers blocks. Here is Block 7 ...


consisting of Family Tree ...


and Blossom.


 Block 8 is made up of ...


 Dreamer and ...


 Birds Eye View.


These Tail Feathers blocks have been great to stitch on cold winter evenings.
(usually with a big cat on my lap!) 
The last two days I've been at the Devonport Eisteddfod with my Penguin Primary students. They have been very successful in both the Vocal Solos and Choir sections. Today my niece Tali won the 10 and Under Solo and my nephew Micah came second in the Boys Solo section. I have more children performing tomorrow and Friday then maybe I'll find the time and energy to stitch this weekend. Just remembered I start holidays next Friday ... only 6 more work days and another term will be over.
