My brother is an avid Bonsai ? not sure what you call it ,he calls himself bonsai master toad lol. I wonder if anyone has seen fabric with bonsai? I do have a cople trees as well,they are nice. but he has a whole garden. Of course he lives in Fla so he can have a much nicer climate for them.

Hoffman has a batik line called bonsai, but I haven't seen one with the trees on it. Good luck

You'd think they'd make the image more identifiable. :roll:

Just saw some today on equilter.com under asian fabrics.

I like this batik better than the Hoffman.

Thanks, those are both very pretty, I may hand embrodrey SP? one and use one of these to frame the needle work, less work and expense than a quilt lol. I already have bought fabric for his quilt. He just bought his retirement home in Fla and I think these would make a beautiful wallhangings, I will look for a redwork type pattern or an applique pattern. You all on this board are so awesome and fast to help!

Now you will have to add a toad to it to go with is name :)

That is a fantastic idea! If I can find one to add. He has been called Toad for as long as I can remember When he was in a motorcycle club he even had The Toad on his vest,lol. He has been refererd to as toad for so long that is all I call him. (he really don't look like a toad ) lol
Here is a pic of him and some of his baby bonsai trees
