New Zealand has had an easier time than more highly populated countries, the benefit of it being an isolated country at the bottom of the world.
We enjoyed our 6 weeks of isolation from March 26. I spent it mainly at the sewing machine. I had daily challenges to myself, and goals, which were surpassed mostly.
In the spirit of goal setting I have decided to join the Rainbow Scrap Challenge for 2021. I started several years ago, but other things got in the way halfway through the year. This year I plan to finish this quilt - Boxy Kites by Bonnie Hunter in months were the colour is not already completed.
Also I will make 3 blocks in each month- 2 of 6 inch and one 12 inch. My block will be Pretty Birds by the sewing loft

In order to give a Kickstart to blogging again, I need to go through my photos to catalogue what I can of the quilts I have completed since my last entry. I will need to do this is more than one post.
