Global Fabric

 

 "Originally created as a batik fabric collage with the international children surrounding a globe, I have altered my original design to create this bright, unique, and colorful fabric of multicultural "paper dolls". Children from Mexico, Germany, France, Japan, Spain, United States, various African nations (among other continents and countries) are featured! This design would be adorable for use in a children's room, classroom, or for a quilt! Image copyright Amy Kuhl Cox 2009"

"Did you know...
...there are only about 3200 tigers left in the wild? This tiger subspecies, the Siberian Tiger-- the world's largest cat is literally on the brink of extinction with only about 400 individuals remaining in their natural habitat. If you can't stand the idea of letting these magnificent creatures disappear forever, there's something you can do about it. Consider where you and your friends, family and neighbors shop and what you buy. Avoid purchasing imported forest products that result in destroying the tigers' habitat. Here's why:

Siberian tigers live mainly in Russian forests which are now under assault by global timber conglomerates. Tiger habitat is beingsystematically decimated to provide illegal timber that's used to make cheap furniture, flooring and other forest products which are marketed mainly in the USA. In fact, up to 90% of the furniture you see for sale in our country is made of illegally harvested wood that is clear cut from ecologically sensitive habitats like this tiger's habitat."
