Help! Need pattern inspiration for 8 batiks
I got 2 yards each of 8 batiks - 4 in the blue green family and 4 in the red pink family. I have been browsing all my refernce books and magazines to find a pattern I like but no luck so far. I am going to look at cat on a mac's gallery but thought I would ask for ideas as well. I thought of a Hawaiian but it doesn't seem to fit. Considering Cathedral Windows or 10 minute block but not thrilled by either. Don't want to do a double wedding ring either! HELP!!

I just finished a quilt called Cosmic Jewel from Keepsake Quilting. Uses 8 diffirent colors and then background. All batiks. I used jewel tones on black background and it turned out gorgeous. My SIL showed me the pattern, she's made it at least 3 times and it turns out gorgeous everytime. All hst's and easy and fast to go together.

I have been playing with the idea of Lady of the Lake for my batiks, using lights on one side and darks on the other.
