    That is a beauty! I just love batiks...I marvel at the beautiful colors and patterns. I also would pull in lavender and green...and maybe a bit of pale yellow also. I'll have to keep my eyes open for this one. Thanks for the advance peek.

    well in the sample the mauve is definitely popping out...

    and then i see the green...

    the lavender-blue is there but not so much in the sample...
    so if the whole fabric exudes the same tonal qualities i would pull the lav-blu...but i would have to see a larger swatch

    and even tho i am one who is not "into" batiks...i luv this fabric...its beautiful!

    I love batiks and use a lot of them.. I would like this for a sampler quilt, but in more of a supporting than starring role.
    I would pull all of the colors out and mix them all up in blocks.. then use this for a border also.. and possibly the back.. it would also make a wonderful summer sundress.. yep.. I'd definitely buy this.

    Beautiful! I would go with the green and mauve. It almost looks like lavender on my computer. I think it would be beautiful in a quilt!
