For batiks, I like the a stained glass pattern or the over/under pattern. I didn't take a picture of the full quilt I did with that pattern, but it's the border on this panel quilt. These blocks were a little bigger than I like, but they can be made any size. If your interested, I will help you with the math.

Here's a pattern that inspired me this week. Would be beautiful in batiks! It makes 2 quilts, 51 X 51.

Those are great fabrics and look so nice together! I think they would look great in one of those woven looking patterns. I'm not sure of the actual name but I'm sure you could find that look on Pinterest and then narrow it down. I know I've seen several. Good luck.

Beautiful. Batiks are my downfall when it comes to buying fabric.
I'm doing the same pattern as IrishRose2 is, without the centre block. I'm just getting into ruler quilting and it will leave me lots of areas to play in, but I also think it really sets off the beautiful colours and all-over patterns that batiks have.
Be sure to let us know what you've decided!
