    The fabrics are stunning! How generous of you to share the fabric you found with the widows group. I'm sure beautiful things will come from your generosity.

    I love the blues and the one with the bird, in the second picture.

    These fabrics are gorgeous. My sister (in the DC area) was a Peace Corps volunteer in Malawi in the early 80's--the warm heart of Africa.
