What a beautiful and bright quilt. I've always loved to collect batiks, almost any color, although I think I now have enough of different colorways in blues, purples, etc. batiks to make a Boston Commons Quilt with a light blue batik as background. When my son wanted an "Egyptian" quilt, I found pattern and fabric at Keepsake Quilting, although like my Boston Commons Quilt, it's still on my "Roundtoit List". I've collected Christmas fabrics (always), dots, then children's fabrics now that I have a DGD and I'm trying to collect fabrics for an "I Spy" quilt now. I thought I'd seen a charm pack somewhere that was perfect for an "I Spy" quilt for my DGD, but I can't find it now. That will teach me to order something when I see it, as someone once said "Quilt fabrics have a shelf life, so if you don't buy it when you see it, it probably won't be there when you go back to get it." So true. I don't know when or if I will finish my "Roundtoit List", but I'm certainly going to try.
