Beautiful batiks.........

I have been busy, just not much to show.  I spent 2 hours yesterday going through two shelves of batiks to choose some to cut for batik colorwash kits to sell.  This stack is 110 fabrics.  I hope to have the rest chosen and all cut, sorted, and packaged by the end of the week.

Still at the workshop. Can't wait to see the batik kits! Warming up here, snow all melted from Friday.

To have that many fabrics-WOW. I just bought a set of 5 blue and 5 cream batiks FQ from Whittles for a good price. Now to find a pattern.

Glorious array of fabrics Wanda, your kits will fly out the door I am sure.

It is hard for me to believe "it is so easy to match the intersections" of your TWA. Only the 'Pro' that YOU are, can do that.

It was good to see your spring plants coming to life in your yard. My little blue bells are bursting away along with pink violets and daffodils... but no hostas even moving yet.

That's a lot of cutting! That's a beautiful stack.

Do you have a website where you sell your kits? I'd love to make one of these.

I recently made a little tote bag out of batik scraps. I used 48 3.5 inch squares and every one was a different fabric. The bag turned out great.

I kept thinking of something I read on your blog recently. It went something like this: why use the same fabrics over and over when you can use 72 different fabrics!

That will be a lot of cutting, stacking, and sorting! It makes me tired just thinking about it, but I know how organized you are! You have done this so many times you have a system and you will be done before we know it!
