    Dottie - Yes, but may need a bit more yardage of fabrics. Don't know how many directional prints you are going to be using. Glad to have you back on the train.

    Yowzers Chasezz that is some bright collection. Going to be an eye-popper!

    Jan love those fabrics. I think the big floral will work fine for A.

    Would this also look good as a table topper?

    I hope so because I'd prefer a topper to a runner, too.

    sidelined this morning at a crossroads in Jackson hole ( https://youtu.be/psfFJR3vZ78 ) but I brought a bag of 60% cacao - very dark Chocolate, yummy....and those little cocktail napkins, because this stuff melts on fingers really fast. have not pulled any fabric yet (because I am testing this chocolate) but I am thinking greens, have a huge box of greens and my DGD in-law loves green (and my Grandson). So today another GS is playing football at Notre Dame and another (have 7 GS) is Cheerleading at University of Arizona...the YL will be standing on his hands,O'my, and doing flips in the air......so a bit nervous, here....have seen the practice tapes and they know what they are doing, still maybe football is safer???? will find the box of green and be back between games.

    OK, I narrowed my selection down and changed to a different blue. This set definitely is a go. If I make a Christmas one it will be in addition to this one.

    Its been about 2 1/2 hours since this first posted and I see Judy is still here. It sure takes a lot of time and work for her to bring these mysteries to us and I would like to say, "Thanks, Judy, for all the hard work you put into this. Your efforts, both online and behind the scenes, are appreciated."

    Jeannie and Jan, yes it will lend to a table topper, that is what I originally wanted to make but didn't have enough of the batiks. So - to make a square topper, just make ... hmmmm ... math-dead today ... in order not to give anything away, just make 1/3 more. So if I say to make 3 of something, make 4. If I say make 8, round it up to 9. One third of 9 is 3 so add 3 and you will make 12. Clear as mud?

    And thank you, Jan, for the compliment. And I will be in and out of this thread all day, at least every couple hours.

    quite a few of our "regulars" haven't shown up. Hopefully they don't miss the train. But it's Saturday and a nice day in many parts of the country, so maybe all are outside enjoying the weather while they can.

    A MINOR GOOF BUT EASILY FIXED AT THIS POINT.

    The E fabric, listed at needing 7" wof -- you will need 9". No big deal, but wanted to mention this in case someone really had their heart set on something they only had a 7" scrap of in their bin.
