Marillier was born and educated in NZ but has now lived longer in Australia. But both still count. Margaret Mahy was an amazing author and a free spirit. They have just opened a fantastic park down in Christchurch and named it after her.Kathryn Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964951326616144323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168132027607016845.post-59572217284215311252016-02-09T19:08:55.672+13:002016-02-09T19:08:55.672+13:00I've visited NZ twice and loved it.

Although I do like Singh and Marillier -- I had no idea they were Kiwis!<br /><br />That flag is very pretty but would be awfully hard to draw freehand. (Much like the US flag -- you have to just fake the stars). The mountain/sky one avoids the Union Jack and is easy to reproduce. But ferns are so lovely...
