    This quilt was originally intended for the 1997 Hoffman Challenge, only I didn't get finished with it in time. Typical. It's all batiks, machine paper pieced and hand quilted with...guess what? Circles! LOL

    Here's the challenge fabric (trust me, it's in there, over to the bottom left ):

    Wow, I love that pattern! And the batiks look exceptional in it! May I ask the pattern name? It definitely needs to go on my to-do list!

    Thank you! The pattern is a traditional kaleidoscope. I love working with batiks - with the color variations, it's always a surprise in the end.
