You know, each one of these fabrics individually makes me drool, but together it's more of a gag. I sure hope one of my kids needs a table runner--I'll need to get this out of the house. :lol: :lol:

Hand waving wildly in the air!! Pick ME, Pick ME, Mrs. Santoro! :P :lol: :lol: :lol:

i just picked up on this thread. did anyone say the outer stripe, green with beigey/goldy leaves? imo, that's the camo stipe. the colors in the other stripes are drop-dead gorgeous. btw, that's the only 2-color stripe. the others are all shades of the same color.

See, you just needed to look at it from a different perspective to see how beautiful it really is!! And I think Lauriejo is spot on. But then I live in a place that doesn't have any autumn, so I have true autumn envy!!

Yeah--but I used all those in Fall Splash--and the brights just don't fit with these and I want to use these batiks. I just have to adjust the title. It'll be called "Touch of Fall" instead of a splash. :wink:

See below--Splash of Fall used up all my brights--but that's not the look I was going for for this one--I wanted more depth somehow.

This will work for 16 squares.
I'm taking out some green for the wall hanging. :-D
