50 Batik Fat Quarters....What to do?
 

I have collected 50 beautiful batik fat quarters and I really need to make use of them.

Any favourite fat quarter patterns that would be especially nice in batiks?

Show and tell pics are welcome, too!

I have never had 50 batik fat quaters, but I would do something that has a stain glass look with a black background, even a traditional pattern. I once saw a Jewel Box made with batiks and black. It was beautiful!

Here re a few freebies from south seas imports.

You could google bali fabrics or tonga treats and see what they have.

Also, BQ quilts would be a good choice.

What size quilt are you planning to make, 50 fat quarters is a lot! In order from top to bottom, all batiks:

1: Patio by Happy Zombies
2: Boomerang by Jaybird Quilts
3: Double Slice by Missouri Star (free)
4: Phoebes Flower Box by Missouri Star (free)

These are way below your pay grade and expertise, but fun and easy to do. I agree that a stained glass quilt would be wonderful with the right colors of Batiks, can’t wait to see what you decide!

Here's one that might work for your batik collection.
And to think ... MMM is almost a neighbour IRL of yours!

Lucky Stars by Atkinson - look for pictures on here by that name in the search bar - should be a bunch

French braid with black sashing.

Fat Quarters
 

I just recently cut 43 fat quarters into a quilt called Sew Many Strips. It is a beautiful quilt, will post pictures when I have the top made. The pattern was in a magazine.

They should be beautiful in the double slice by Jenny Doan on MSQC. I love that pattern and have made it many times.

There are two batik quilts I made that used a lot of different fabrics.
