See the batik patterns at: www.fourpawsquilting.com. The Strips and Ladders pattern is beautiful. Also try Suzanne McNeill's patterns at: www.d.originals.com. She has a great one for the Bali Pops.

I know that the Hoffman fabrics website has several which are beautiful also.

Another favorite of mine is: www.batiks.com That is a really neat quilt shop in Wytheville VA and she has some gorgeous patterns and ideas.

Enjoy !

I am working on Bonnie's (Quiltville) quilt "patches and pinwheels using all batiks. It is looking good so far. I think any scrappy pattern would look good in batiks.

Orion's Star (Quilt-In-A-Day); Yellow Brick Road (Atkinson Designs); and the quilting book Turning Twenty (I think it's book 2 has a batik example) all are great for batiks.

i am making "tube type" quilts using batiks. They look great. Some have just 4 prints while others are more scrappy. Am working on now with dark Christmas design batiks.

I just made this quilt table topper with scraps. The large blocks are 8", but everything else is cut 2" (The sashing is a batik) I think it would fabulous all in batiks, in fact am considering doing one myself with my batik scraps. Pattern is called "Slide Show" by Atkinson Designs

Anything goes - log cabin, anything with squares & rectangles, wow, too many to mention - choose anything you like and it will be gorgeous - after all, you're using batik!! Have fun!

In the Jan/Feb McCalls Quilting there is a beautiful pattern for batiks. This may be my next quilt. It is on page 56, Architectural Gem.

Awhile back a lady (I think from NY) made a beautiful quilt for a male friend who had cancer. She used a pattern like the one in the link above with blues and purples and maybe some greens in Batik fabrics.

Maybe someone book marked the picture and can add that information. I didn't know about bookmarking when I saw it.
