Batik strip quilt

I have no idea why I decided to make a sample before I made the class sample but that's what this little batik baby is. I modified some of the dimensions to fit the smaller overall size - enjoying all of EQ's talents along the way. And now I best get to the actual sample quilt...

We are not going to talk about my wavy borders
(even tho it is a fab fabric) cuz I'll just quilt that out...somehow...

I also received a squishy in the mail this week!!!!
Ladyquiltsalot at Pieces of My Heart had sponsored a giveaway for surpassing 5,000 page hits. Lucky girl! Anyway...this great little pincushion winged its way from Canada to my house this week. It was a fun little surprise I had forgotten was on it's way so it was a very happy mail day :^)     Thank you !!
