    :) You town is absolutely breathtaking. Reminds me of Greece. I have never been there but have seen documentaries on it. When I get my inkjet refill in my computer, I will copy these pictures. So serene and comforting. Have an awful time getting the refills in slot.

    Thanks for sharing these photos - I am in love with Spain!

    Glad you liked the pictures of Spain, it is beautiful and tranquil, we just don´t ge the traffic on the roads as in England, After an evening dancing (we go to classes for Latin American and Tango Argentine, we come home and are lucky to see 3 cars on the road. However that doesn´t stop the Guardia Policia stopping you to either check your car or breathalise you.
    Just about to start back on the quilt I was making before we heard the news of the new Babe, just need to stitch all the applique on which is a job and a half as its a big quilt.
    Goin to treat you some more to Spanish Life and show you some Fiesta pictures from last year.
    Elle By the way its lovely to write to you all, I really enjoy learning about things.

    Hi HJ, posted some pictures of one of the fiestas, think its in the Amish Lone Star to "COLEANGEL" so you will see some there. Here are some more of one of the many Fiestas just in our Village. Enjoy

    Even the horses are decorated and they all sing as the procession travels right through the village and down to the Coast

    Yes, G-Maw, I believe you are correct in the eight point star. You just increase the point around the outside to the size you need for the size of quilt you are wanting to make. I appreciate all the help I can get! Thank you!
