    I haven't fused or appliqued them yet, but I think I'm going to use these on the yellow background for the pillow.
    I have a little more than 20 more sets for the quilt, so when I decide how I'm going to put them together, will post a pic of them.

    Yes I am. The pillow is for a friends little girl, she just turned two last month, so it will be the June pillow case for her pillow. Already made her 3 others, and will do one for each month.

    The actual quilt is 20 blocks (allthe same) but the flip flops will be different. Then will make a square pillow to match. That set will be for my niece that will be continueing her college education in Ft. Lauderdale, so I thought Flip Flops would fit the city.

    It will be just great Mary :D

    I have been to Fort Lauderdale!!, we did a trip about 3 years ago, did the usual at Orlando, then down to F.L., Clearwater then over to Miami, then down to Key West.

    We hired a small plane at the keys, and the pilot allowed my son Ryan to take the controls....his face was a picture!! He was sixteen at the time, what an experience....The keys look amazing from the sky, we could see all the turtles and dolphins....one very special place Florida...BUT I don't like your thunerstorms.... :shock: :shock:

    Actually thunderstorms are seriously scary here in Spain, November and april seem to be the time for them. We get torrential rain too. We are situation about 750 metres above sea level, so when the storms come in we are literally in the clouds and the thunder is all around you, thankfully it only happens a couple of times a year....when we visited Floriday in April it was every day...lol!
