Thanks ladies for the encouragement - it is not easy working though all my leftover batiks. Now I've got Delaware and Florida done, I'll be taking a break until the repairs to the kitchen from the flooding from broken pipes and the ice dams is resolved. I guess while we were gone on vacation a promised oil delivery did not occur...and we came home to a major mess. Plaster walls and ceilings will be coming down and everything will have to moved out of the kitchen for the wood floor to be replaced.
