Batiks to help banish the winter blues

It's April in Northern Ontario. Actually, it's April everywhere, but here it doesn't necessarily mean spring-like weather. In fact, we have a snowstorm warning in effect today and snow forecasted for most days in this coming week.

Come on, Spring!

There's even a giveaway to WIN some of these gorgeous Banyan Batiks - click here to visit post. Contest closes April 8!

The tutorial started Monday here: Batik boho fun: making a quilted cushion cover
