Island Chain finished
 
The name of this quilt is Island Chain. It is from Kim Brackett's book Scrap-Basket Sensations. It is made from various batiks I have in my stash. My son chose the color palette as it is for his bed.

Oh yes, I do love this. Batiks are my favorites and your colors are gorgeous. SO PRETTY.(I know boys / men don't like pretty, but this is.) So if he doesn't like pretty, I'll send you my physical address. LOL

Very pretty quilt! Love the fabrics you used!

Beautiful quilt - doesn't really look 'scrappy' - looks joyfully exuberant :)

Are those all quilting books & magazines in the bookshelf behind the quilt? Some of us have as much 'stash' of both as we do of fabric. Not me, heavens no. (ok, yes, I do) LOL!

Very pretty!

Your son sure does have good taste in colors and you did a fantastic job making the quilt.

Very pretty, nothing like batiks to make me smile.

DebraK 11-03-2011 02:38 PM

I wish! That's my husbands DVD collection and miscellaneous books. All my quilting books and magazines are in my sewing room. I can't fit the longarm in there ;-)
