the scrubs place advertises in the back of quilting magazines. my mom noticed the ad, got some, then i did. their name is HICE, i haven't ordered any in about 4 yrs, because i just really overdid it for a while. the matarial was so pretty. 1-800-752-4927 is phone #. at the time it was $25 for a huge box. like a foot and half square, and 4 ft tall. plus shipping by ups. it was $25 to michigan.
here's another one----each side of the box was 1 1/2 foot.+the box was 4 ft. long.

Nice job..
I really like the green one

yes, they do. the girls just wash and wash them. just a tiny bit of fading after years. it's a poly/cotton blend, but feels like cotton.

I love them. But I know I could never make one in two days. I'm putting together a bunch of 4-patches for my guild quilts right now. Just took a break because it's so boring.
Love your quilts though. Every one is great!

now, we are not going to kid ourselves. it would be a dawn to dusk task for 2 days all day.--with scraps, and cutting and sewing l square at a time. ---- but if you did strip sewing, (eleanor burns method) you know what i mean? then it wouldn't be such long days. and you might even be able to get one done in l long day, if you pushed yourself. a queen, double, or twin.
