Playing with Batiks

When I first started on the blogs a couple of months ago I saw a beautiful quilt done with batiks and quilted with lines. I believe she called it Currents. I wish I could remember who made it. I fell in love with it and wanted to do something like it. I bought some batik scraps from Getsassed on Etsy aka Sew Fantastic added a few of my own to make this. It will be a purse. I used a variegated thread. Here is a close up.
This is the other side.

I love batiks! They are my favorite fabrics I rarely use them because I do not want to cut them. lol

Crumbs Quilt

Well I finished putting the sashing on the Crumb Quilt. Now I just wrung out. I know that it needs more borders. The light bulb hasn't come on. I need to make some purses to list on Etsy to sell. I have been churning out the quilt tops like crazy it's time to get back to my money makers. My Dh was watching me last night and asked if I thought all my fabric was ugly again. lol That is usually my excuse when I have quilters block. No my fabric is not ugly it is still all organized and pretty I just don't know what to do. Some appliquie I think. lol Maybe tonight something will jump out and turn the light bulb again. Oh yeah Happy Cinco de Mayo
