This is too much :!: I'm the same way with my batiks. I swear, just last night I took out the batiks and just gazed at them. Yep, had them lined up on the ironing board (don't have that many) and I just looked at them. Then I laid them out on a bed and gazed some more, and wondered exactly when I was going to find that perfect pattern for them. This quilting forum is so refreshing....we can tell all our secrets and there's always someone who understands. :wink:
Did you see that beautiful irish chain quilt made of many colored batik squares on a white background? That would not use very big pieces of any of them.... but a bit of all of them! Jeannie
