I did a quilt with Bali fabric using the half-hexi pattern.
I will try to post it later under Bali half-hexi. It was fun arranging the material into a modern grandma flower garden quilt.

They are a type of fabric. Very pretty...My Favorite!!! A friend works at one of the fabric stores here in town and we joke all the time about the Batiks, they are her favorite too.

here is a close up of some tie dye next to some batiks. A batik is like a tie dye, but has prints on them. They are just wonderful.

In the pic it is a tie dye, batik, and another batik. You'll see the difference and fall in love with them for sure.

I don't think I seen that one. If anyone finds it, I would like to see it.

Wow! Well for now have fun playing with it. No matter what you choose to do with it I do not think you can go wrong as all the fabrics are so pretty.
