    that needs to be completely finished by the time I go to Dallas on the 10th!

    Sad thing, this challenge was My idea, I even bought everyone the fabric! Now I just can't seem to wrap my head around what to do with it.

    It is pretty fabrics, there were 4 FQ's and a 1/2 yard of a coordinating watercolor. They are batiks in a chocolate/raspberry sort of tones. I think I am too focused on that color way (which does not go with anything in my house) and not focused on finding something to go with them that WILL go with my house!

    STUCK!

    Also, given my now short time frame, I am not sure what to make....

    How about a small project with New York Beauties? Maybe a wall hanging, table runner or placemats. They look beautiful in batiks.

    Here's a link:

    pretty, they reminded me that I do have the Mariner's compass CD from Brenda Henning!

    Paper/foundation pieced would make a great wall hanging!

    THanks!

    I liked them all, but apparently you need a membership to print them off...the link kept taking to a really strange page!

    Sorry I didn't realize that. I have seen some free ones. I'm on the iPod now but will check my bookmarks in a bit and see if I can find one.
