Aww--thanks for your kind words everyone. Such warm fuzzies for the morning. :D I hope to get two more done today. My daughter says it reminds her of seaweed or algae, but she's a Bio/Chem major, so I think that was okay. :wink:

Karla, that is really going to be a pretty quilt. I haven't used many batiks either but I sure like the use of yours!

sandpat--I love batiks! But, I had to get over trying to find the best side. :roll: And the back look as good as the front--well except for all those seams. :wink:

Very, very nice! I'm partial to batiks myself. I don't do well with other fabrics. For some reason batiks really inspire me, and really connect to my creative side.
