The beginning...

I am starting a new quilt with these fabrics for my sister-in-law who is very ill.  (She had an aneurysm leaking near her brain stem in October resulting in brain surgery.  It's been a long and tough process of recovery but she's moving forward.)  Her favorite color is purple...any shade of purple.  And she has this 'thing' for anything with strawberries on it.  I found a Moda batik with strawberries that came in a colorway that included purple. Score!


Then I am adding a variety of prints I have been longing to work with.  Here are some samples.


Can't wait to begin.  :o)
