After completing an oversized quilt in January I needed a new quick and easy project preferably using my stash. Here is a picture of the pattern and my interpretation in batiks. It's a fat quarter friendly pattern and I only had to purchase the outer border fabric.

Super !

Your version is so so so much better than shown on the pattern picture. Good for you to be able to "see" the pattern underneath the example. the batiks are awesome!

Beautiful....they should have your photo on the package. Are you going to add the appliques? I think your's is perfect as it is!

ggreenridley 02-24-2011 08:31 AM

The colors in your version is better. It has some of my favorite colors. I often make changes to the colors in the pattern.

Your selection of batiks really harmonized the pattern. I love batiks.

I think my quilt has enough movement in it so I won't need to add the applique... I can now just move on sandwiching and quilting it.

Beautiful! great colors! Love the pattern!

midwestqltr 02-24-2011 09:26 AM

Beautiful! Love the colors. Well, I am going to have to add that pattern to my collection, as well. Thanks to this board, I am now spending a lot of money on individual patterns rather than books. Now, I only buy books featuring a new/specific technique.

No I'm sorry I don't - I just pick up fat quarters when I see and hear one calling my name - eventually I get around to making something with them.

Beautiful!!!!

First one cute but your is gorgeous. Love the fabrics!

Stacey 02-24-2011 11:56 AM

Ooohhhh. Very pretty. You just can't go wrong with batiks.

quiltin chris 02-24-2011 12:31 PM

it is gorgeous. I like it much better than the pattern sample.

I love looking at things made with batiks but I just can't seem to incorporate them in my projects.

I love your version. It's great.

Barb_MO 02-24-2011 12:40 PM

How pretty. I think the pattern maker should of had you make the sample quilt to hove on the pattern...Yours is so much prettier.

MoMoSews 02-24-2011 12:42 PM

Very nice! :thumbup:
