    lol, I don't even want to put them away... Ithink I might leave them right on the coffee table for a while(so I don't forget about them).

    Beautiful fabrics. I have some Batiks too. I am going to make a quilt out of them to keep in my truck.


    And is that a Wal Mart receipt I spy on the rug? LOL

    I have some batiks that I really don't know what to do with. I hate to cut them up.

    I saw a really stunning, yet simple quilt on line somewhere...I just can't remember where. I did a search here & checked my bookmarks but didn't find it. If I can explain it correctly, it is simply bright/light large circles on dark squares - all batiks. The border had smaller batik squares set in. Does anyone remember seeing anything like that here?

    For all of you batik fans, I suggest you go over to the Swaps link and check out the current batik block swap. There's still plenty of time to sign up and participate. The last swap resulted in absolutely beautiful blocks being swapped. You can still find pix of them on the thread for the swap that ended a few months ago.
