    Default Anybody recognize these batiks ??

    A large donation of fabric was left for us senior sewers at the local senior center but since no one took these orphan blocks, I finally picked them up. I always try my best to make a finish project. I need to make three more of these blocks (they are currently 8.5" but I will trim them down to 6.5") and I can then turn them into a Bible bag. But I don't have any batiks that will go with these fabrics. Does anybody recognize them?? Any help would be appreciated. You can PM me. Thanks in advance.

    Very pretty batiks and a pretty block, but I can't help you with the fabrics. I wish I could.

    Have you looked at Keepsake Quilting? They might be from there.

    I do,they're in the the set of strips I used for the star that's my avatar. The fabric was a Bali Pop I bought a couple years ago. Right now I can't remember the color set, but it looked all purples online. In reality it was mostly purples but ran the gamut from pinks to purples to dark blues. I'm going home later today so I'll look to see if I kept a package label. I might even have some left as I bought two of them.

    Thank you Cari. I would be glad to pay for them including any postage.

    Just sent you a PM. Apparently I don't have any more of these exact ones but I have several that will go with what you have.

    They look like Hoffman to me.

    My guess would be Keepsake quilting. At the risque of sounding sacrilegious, JoAnn fabrics does carry some batiks. Their selection keeps improving.
