here's a little something with batiks

Very pretty, I especially love the center square fabric.

ooooooo pretty

Beautiful fabrics, nice points.

Very pretty!

More More!!! Can't wait to see how big it gets.

Beautiful! That center fabric is a real beauty.

Wonderful Fabrics! Can't wait to see the whole quilt.

I love it but have to ask. Depression top? Is that the name of the block? Its beautifal. Thanks :thumbup:

The colors remind me of sherbet--yummmm!

Lovely, very nice

yup, the block is called depression, i just made it a little bigger than usual

nothing depressing about that one!! ;)

Ditter

Very pretty!!

Looks good. How big will the finished project be?

very pretty block

Where did you find the pattern online or in a book?

Thanks for sharing!

That is so pretty. I love the batiks. And the pattern is great. Perfect points . Thanks for sharing.

Purdy, purdy.

What comes next? Really cool design.

I love the quilt, but I'd rename the block. It rocks!

Very nice!!!

Striking. Batiks have a way of taking a pattern and giving it the "wow" factor. You have the "wow" here.

very pretty :) I just made one of these blocks in black and white.. it is fun.

not sure it is already 48 X48

that's great in black & white; at least you followed the color pattern correctly----! i'm lousy at following directions, i tend to veer left.......

sorry, i didn't name the block--this came out in a time when people sewed scraps of clothing together to keep warm--[the DEPRESSION era] pattern available on quilterscache.com

I had no directions..LOL.. maybe that helped me... I am not good with directions... .I just made the light and dark together and placed them .. .. there is so many quilts you can make with those light and darks. our quilts of valor group makes one with a heart in centre ;)

that's hardly noticeable---b/c you followed the light/dark pattern

wow that almost looks like another pattern!!! they're pretty& i'll bet they didn't take long to do

here is the pattern for the block i did mine ( black and white ) in 6 inch squares because I already had some cut out. it probably take 4 of these and a border for a lap quilt

just trying to think outside of the box.........4 a change

Outside the box is good ;)

Okay... have a fun day ;)>. I am off to cut for Quilts of Valor this morning ;)m it's friday :)

So attractive. Is the name of the block "12 inch Depression?" I've never heard of it before but sure do like yours. Batiks are a favorite of mine. They make up so pretty.

no, it's just an enlarged version of the depression block. i don't like cutting those beautiful batiks into tiny squares where you can't see all that beauty--- thanks for the compliment

I like it.

Very pretty. Batiks are my favorite!

that is really pretty, those fabrics look so neat. thank you for sharing. Penny

I love the turqoises.
