That's a challenge, all right! Whew, I think I'm glad I didn't sign up for that one. I do lots of challenges, but that would have been really tough.

It is really an ambitious batik. I look forward to making something patriotic with it.

Whoohoo! That fabric was a special batik made for one of the MD/VA quilters quests. I loved it, but I never knew what to do with it. I gave some away as souvenirs of Washington DC, but I still have some left. I can't wait to see what you all do with it, so I can be inspired.
