Oh, and Michael Levine is in my neck of the woods. I’ll have a peek next time I’m there.

Hi, Liesl
I found the Quilt Illusions black floral double knit at:

Cheers, Marlene

You are most welcome, Liesl! Hope you locate it and sew up a storm!

Well they sure are! Thank you…. I will be doing so much more than skimming the book. I feel pretty silly for not looking thru page by page before asking! It is a great book!and sure to be one I will use often!
