I finally got some time to get back to my quilt this morning. I do not have enough of the yellow color to make it king size. I have enough for a few blocks, so I will add on to it ; add a black border and hopefully the piano key border. I've been searching online for the fabric and have not found it and can not remember the manufacturer. My brain is tired of looking.
I appreciate all the lovely comments and help. I'll post a photo of the top after it is done.
Happy Friday!

We went to the flea market Saturday morning which put me in the vicinity of a fabric store so we stopped. I found my yellow fabric!! I was so surprised. I may end up with that king size quilt yet.
Happy Monday!

You could use this as the center, add some more batiks, and keep going. The center would 'glow', depending on what fabric combination you used for the next blocks. You could do a double row of blocks all the way around this panel in a different color combination, and then a different one again for another set of double blocks, etc., until you finish. That way you'd 'read' the quilt from the center out, especially if you used different fabrics in each succeeding double set of blocks. The black sashing really adds to the design. I can't wait to see what direction you go with this one. Beautiful!

Gorgeous!!
You can buy the pattern on this website. It is a downloadable pattern.

With the internet, anything is possible. Just do a search for the pattern. That is how I found a source for it.

OMG the COLOR that is showing up on this board lately! FAN-freakin-tastic! Another stunning one for the books! Nice use of color, and the pattern shows it off perfectly! I love to see the ones where the fabrics & pattern are in perfect harmony. Btw, what is the name of the pattern?
