Suzi, just got back from this link. It's awesome. Your mom paid way over what this site is charging for the same thing. These are some awesome fabrics for sure! Can't wait to see what you make :wink:

I'm not an expert (that would be the understatement of the century), but isn't this just essentially a trip around the world sort of, but on point?? Some are the batik squares, some are the black squares, and some are a batik square with a black border. Wouldn't you just cut the squares, assemble the bordered ones, then put it together row by row with the triangle ends to make it on point?

I saw a great bow tie quilt with brights and black. The ties were done in super bright colors with the off corners being black. It was laid out on the diagonal in different colored rows. It looked awesome when it was finished.

There are two patterns that I think would work with your fabric! One is called Dandelion Wine and the other Batik Cascade.

If you're interested, let me know, after I'm finished reading the magazine, I can send it to you. :D
I'm very interested! Thank you for thinking of me. :D :D

Okay, that clearly looks like a pattern package to me. What is a pattern after all but instructions? Surely it's not just templates. IMO you should ask to speak with a manager and say that you expect a kit to include the instructions. I mean, that's basic.

I'd threaten to send it back if they refuse to send instructions, but if they're so low they can swindle you out of instructions, they might not refund the money. Of course, if your mom paid with a credit card, she could dispute it.

I don't have a pattern suggestion, sorry. I think that diamond pattern would be just right.

Love batiks too!

I've picked up the book "Batik Gems" by Laurie Shifrin (http://www.connectingthreads.com/boo...s_BD44895.html) with wonderful ideas that make me drool :) Love the book!

A lone star/blazing star would look wonderful too!
