   This is truly a wonderful idea.   
      
   Upon looking through the selections, I spotted one made by a group called   
   The Transplants in Millbrook, Ontario.   
      
   I've written a note to my aunt who lives there as she is an avid quilter and   
   "transplant" in that area to see if she helped on this one.
