The toucans are taking over the asylum!

Well they are a bit mad you have to admit!

I started off with this crazy Drunkard's Path block from my FQ class with Lynne and somehow those toucans wormed their way into my consciousness and just wouldn't let go!




So having purchased a Big Shot and DP die -  oops did I say that out loud? 



- I cut some more bits out and was considering this layout





Or rather this one







But then the toucans told me that wasn't crazy enough for them and it has ended up like this!




Am I the only crazy one listening to the birds on her fabric!??  OK yes I am!

  21. I would probably be singing, "In the tiki, tiki, tiki room, in the tiki, tiki, tiki, tiki room...." the whole time while making those. Wonderful blocks.

  22. THis fabric Looks gorgeous with this pattern. Isn´t this wasting a lot of fabric? Just asking, because I hate this cutting, so a cutting machine would help ;-)
