I also buy for color and design. Anything with leaves has my eye right away. I like some colors more than others. Anything that's not muddy can come live in my stash!

I spread out all my batiks on my hotel bed and took a photo and sent it to my husband. He loved them all and told me to go get more so that's why it took me two days to shop.

rjwilder, your hubby is a keeper! I buy batiks for color and pattern. I'm not loyal to any brand, but I do look for sales!

I've got some batiks I bought when a local quilt shop went out of business, don't know the mfg tho. Still trying to remember what I had in mind, guess it was because they were on sale, and thought they were pretty, 'cause I'm not a big fan of batiks
