I sure wish I had it back because I cannot recreate it.

I used dark "cool" browns and very pale aquas -NOT turquoise, but aqua (more green). I used a few different fabrics - all batiks of course. The only ones you could probably find these days would be the fabrics with the dots. The others were Island batiks and have not been reprinted. It's a really easy, fun pattern! You can have tons of fun with the colors - I reallly liked how mine turned out. I kind of did the opposite of what most people do and made mine with a dark background and light color focus fabric - most people go light background and dark focus fabrics. Good luck!
