We discussed it in some posts above, but in it is worth repeating. The design is by Lisa Moore who has a website www.quiltswithatwist.com. It is also available at Rushin Tailor Quilt Shop in Skagway Alaska (rushintailor.com). I don't know if I would buy just the pattern unless you have a store with a very large selection of batiks and you are particularly talented at putting the colors together. The way the colors blend is such an important part of the quilt. Good luck and have fun.

I also found a fabric store in Ketchikan and bought a panel of an Eagle there and some coordinating fabrics. I haven't made that yet...maybe I should pull that out and get it done to remind me of the wonderful trip that was! :)

I hit a couple of stores in Ketchikan also, but haven't used the fabric or panels yet.

"while I wasn't paying attention the Sewing Room Gremlins took up residence in my sewing room and have made a terrible mess. I know there is a cutting table under there somewhere......"

Well, the gremlins' cousins trashed my sewing room, too!
