That was me. But there was a while all I was sewing with was batiks. They don't have the same feel, to me, when they are finished as a cotton quilt. But I had a twin sized that I machine quilted myself & I said let's let the batiks rest for a bit. And now I've sent batiks to the Opal group. I'm into border prints right now, I have 4 pieces waiting on me. But I couldn't resist a second boom, I had so much fun in my first.
