Are you sure that isn't applique? I had a friend that has the same exact pattern that she was appliquing. Weird same colors too. Oh I hadnt scrolled down to see the batik one I was talking about the one at the top with all the flowers. Sorry

Yes, it's applique. I have the OESD embroidery designs for this. I just need the fabric.

I have some of that fabric, only just a few strips. That was one that I used in a Batik Fabric Fling I made. I bought it at this place. She does have some batiks on the web site, BUT I CAN guarantee you shes got 100's of bolts of just Batiks. When we go to the Oregon Coast, I always stop by there. Give her the webpage for that quilt and ask her if she has that particular fabric.

Fabricfanatics.com has some of it left for $8.50 a yard.

I messed up my bom so I am going to be searching for some of it as well. If you are doing hand applique do not use the accu quilt dies, I found out the hard way and wasted all my bom kit fabric.

Thanks, I'll look into it. No, I'm not using any dies, I've got the CD and I have to cut out the appliques by hand. What problem did you run into with the dies?

There is no seam allowance on the dies although they are advertised big time for applique.
