For my FREE Mystery, My Secret Garden, I go back in time a few years to an amazing trip I hosted .. to Ireland!
Are you Irish? I bet you are and you don't even know it.. wink! The Killarney National Park was on my Quilter's tour of Ireland trip and the experience was amazing.

On this trip the quilters and I spent 9 days touring and seeing so many wonderful things. From cities like Dublin to watching a sheep herding demo .. do you see the collie in the grass?
One spectacular garden we visited was Killarney National Park.. who doesn't love a park with a castle in it! Plus we had a ferry ride that went around with a landing to go walk the castle.
This is one of my favorite photos of the trip, the perfect little group of thatched roof cottages with early spring gardens. We did decide that it would make the best little quilt shop!

When working with blocks I've really been excited about using the design boards to layout and keep track of things.
I know you can make them, but honestly I prefered to buy them, and I have several sizes. Great for the small project and the large blocks!
The day I was taking photos was the day after our HUGE 30" of snow! I could not resist showing you how they looked the 'day after' the big snow storm.
Here we go, 2 blocks together, in both colorways!!
Link party at the end to show off your block!
