A kind member of this newsgroup sent me cyber hugs for the message that was sent under my name yesterday. I was gone all day and didn't even know my name and address had been hyjacked. Sorry for any problems this troll is causing. I see that the message has been removed. Thanks to whoever took care of that.
Hope my original message about working with batiks was delivered. The message was simply "pre-wash batiks or you might regret it". I relayed a story of a friend who had just completed a masterpiece applique wallhanging and the bird made from blue batik bled while she was removing the quilting lines. That story was sad enough. Guess the troll had another story (and pictures?)
