Shorebird...what is the pattern in your avatar? It looks like a variation on a trip around the world? Whatever it is, it is beautiful!

Proud mom/step-mom to 8 children. 5 on their own, ARMY MP stepson currently home from serving in Iraq, 2 step-grandchildren, plus 3 little boys at home.

Our family looks forward to the day that they have a cure for developmental and neurological diseases. We promote awareness of Autism and Huntington's Disease.

Please pm me if you are interested in sending me Box Tops or Campbell's Soup labels to raise money for our sons' school.


THANKS for the compliment! It is called JAMAICA, and it is from Blanche Young's book"Traditions with a Twist"...Did more un-sewing on this than any other........36 different strip sets.....picture does not do the colors justice. They are all batiks, including the black......It really was a fun one to put together..........If you have not seen her book, and you like strip piecing, you should get it........colors they choose in the book are not the best to show off the designs, but the designs are really different and easy to do.
