I got my book on Ebay for $11, is in the mail as I type right now. I will pick up some more papers tongiht at the quilt shop so I have them on hand when we start. Will be watching the pretty stars shine here while I wait. I am pulling my batiks out and going to use a main background color on all of them and the rest different. I think that will work for me. thank you for welcoming me aboard.
