    Here is the "twister" quilt that I just finished. My daughter has a very good friend who has cancer. He is going thru treatment right now, so is having a difficult time. He loves water colors, so she picked out the material and I made the quilt. I think these batiks are even prettier in person than in the picture.

    Beautiful colors; yes it does remind you of water. He will love it and it will keep him smiling even though he is having health problems. I have a friend was diagnoised with cancer and he loves to hunt. When I showed him the quilt I was making for him with deer fabric, he got cheerful and cheery eyed.

    Wow! I think that may be one of my favorite twisters. Very pretty. Best wishes to your daughters friend, I hope he gets well soon.
