Interesting, but I don't know that I'd ever find a use for it.

It shows a lot of light, and would be nice in the right quilt and color combinations. I'm partial to all batiks and can envision it would bring life to a quilt.

I wouldn't buy it. It could be attractive if used as small pieces with other fabrics.

I absolutely love it. If you mixed it with oranges and yellows and reds, it would look like fall.

Interesting, almost looks like old style hair combs (Oriental) or else tropical.

I can see this batik working very well for summer quilts. It really has a sunshiny, beachy feel and would look great with yellows and oranges. Think tropical!

It would make a great focus block or wide border. Chopping it up would take away from it I think.

Me too. I'd buy it. Love the contrast.

I love it, but then I love bold bright colors.

I like the pattern in it, but not the yellow color. Maybe two shades of red instead?
