I like all except Primary and Harvest. I seem to prefer Batiks that have fewer colors VS many colors in them.
|
Pansy, Evening, and Caribbean are just gorgeous!!!
|
I would buy them all for art quilts and accessories. :thumbup:
|
I do not like pumpkin nor harvest, both seem "muddy" to me. The others are lovely.
|
They're all beautiful but love the purples, blues & greens. What are you going to do with them?
|
so glad i am not you i like them all the primary is one i am iffey on but would get all of them if i could i dont think i could pick
|
I love all of them. I just love batiks. I know a number of people have said they don't like the pumpkin but I can already picture that one in a couple of my upcoming projects.
|
All of the blues, greens & purples are my favs.
|
This probably won't be much help to you, but I think you should buy all of them. If you don't, you may regret it. <g>
|
Isn't it interesting how each person has different personal favorites. I think you are going to have a tough time weeding out the "undesirable" ones. I love batiks too. I'd pick them all despite the fact that I normally tend to pick jewel tones as my favorites. These are gorgeous.

I'm not sure I should do this to you all but... there are others in this collection that I didn't post the pictures of. Ok, I admit it, I only posted the pictures of the ones I liked best... and in this case it was mostly the brighter colors.
Here come some more: red [ATTACH=CONFIG]111635[/ATTACH] olive [ATTACH=CONFIG]111636[/ATTACH] pacific [ATTACH=CONFIG]111637[/ATTACH] rust [ATTACH=CONFIG]111638[/ATTACH] charcoal [ATTACH=CONFIG]111639[/ATTACH] vintage [ATTACH=CONFIG]111640[/ATTACH] autumn [ATTACH=CONFIG]111703[/ATTACH] |
Oh they are gorgeous!! Just get them all!!
|
I am not a red person but that red is great just like the others. WOW ! If I had them I would just sit and look at them all day, I am having that problem right now.
|
I really love the ones that read like water or sky. My first choice would be caribbean, then emerald, then pansy, harvest, pacific, purple, primary, evening, vintage, pumpkin and rust. I am not a fan of autumn, charcoal, red, or olive but I am sure that they could be used to beautiful effect.
|
Pansy is gorgeous and I'm a purple girl at heart.
|
Love them , not the pumpkin one as much. I'm not an orange person.
|
Ohhhhhhhh, that second batch is beautiful!!! The only one I don't care for is the charcoal.
My favorites are pacific, rust and autumn. Of those, I think rust wins. |
Do you think there'd be a market for pre-cut FQ bundles of these? Or just yardage?
If you were to to make bundles, how would you split it up? Warm colors vs. cool? Or bright versus smoky? |
I think you'd have a market for FQs, but I'd prefer yardage personally. I'm glad I'm not in your shoes regarding arranging them into bundles!

I love Autumn and Vintage from this new group.
|
I would take every one of them. The "stripes" make me do some thinking about how to use them. I can think of several blocks that would be striking done with these.
|
I like them all. But the purple, pansy and primary are my most favorite.
|
I love primary and pumpkin. I like the others, but these 2 are my favorites.
|
These would look good cut for a border across the stripes. You could pull the colours from the batik for the quilt to tie them together..
|
I don't care too much for primary or harvest. Too "muddy" for my taste. I LOVE caribbean!! I'd love to put that in my next quilt which is going to be a storm at sea in water colors.
|
Don't like the bottom 3 - primary, pumpkin, harvest. But the others are GORGEOUS!!! I'll take a yard of each!!!
|
I like them all. :D God bless.
|
Why don't you get a little bit of each one so you can chose which one you need at the time.
|
I'm sorry. I can't help you because I like all of them!! They are gorgeous!!!

Here come some more: They are too beautiful to pass up. |
I can think of applications/projects for all of them except the primary - but I'm sure another quilter might find the primary color her number one choice.
|
I would have a hard time not buying any of these. The purples and blues are my favorite, but those are my favorite colors. The pumpkin is just crying out for a fall quilt (maybe pumpkins made and appliqued with this material). The last one is the only one that doesn't give me an immediate idea, but I'm sure someone more creative could use it beautifully.

I'd buy every one of them, except for the "primary", though I am most drawn to the blue/purple/green ones
