Just the book, and not paper piecing.

This is going to be so awesome when it's finished. I love the idea of using batiks for this. Are you pre-washing your fabrics?

Very nice. I just bought the book and my fabric is on it's way. I'm also doing batik but my blocks will each be a different batik with cream background. I purchased 10 yards of background. How much did you get?

I will watch your progress! :)
Happy Quilting

I may have some of that from a quilt I made a few years ago -- I think it is in WA right now so I won't know until we get back in Nov -- PM me if you run out.
