Thank you mg and Izy. :)
mg~not all paper pieced quilts are made from so many sections. There are tons of patterns out there that are far less intimidating and very doable. I've seen your work. You could do this technique with your eyes closed! :D
Izy~now that's just an awful shame. To be right there where batiks are created and not know to buy up everything in sight!!! :shock: LOL I too love batiks and had a great time choosing 14 different ones for this quilt. :)
