As some of you may know I am coming off radiation therapy on my brain. Last week my husband gave me a buz cut and (from the mother of quilting invention) I have this scarf. It made me feel good and face glowed with the batiks I use. It is made with 10 strips but with a rotary blade in wavey bands where you iron down the curved strips and sewing them onto the next one. For me- I put moisture on , button earings, a little make up - and I can face the world. Presently I am seekings ideas to make my scarf - a gift for those ladies who are facing a difficult time with this radiation therapy. A smile and some hope is the small grace I want to give. No sales - just a gift from me.
I took the scraps of those same batiks and made them into a mosaic pattern for the last 12 post cards that are due for Art 07. Pictures will be coming out shortly.
I am a fighter, and my quilt art has helped.

What a gorgeous scarf, and I sure admire your great attitude! God Bless! You should post a photo of your beautiful self wearing that scarf.
Jeanne, this is a great idea! Do you have dimensions or directions for this scarf?
Bless you for thinking of others when you are struggling yourself. Sending you my Best Voodoo Healing Vibes!
I really like this idea.
Can you give us specific directions for making this? I have lots of batiks that I could use.
Hang in there...
