Wow! I love it! The stripes seem to make the plates spin.

Ah, Geeze-whiz, Chuck! You make me feel bad that I haven't done anything lately. There are no adjectives I can use that have not already been said, but beautifu, bright, and wonderfully done come to mind. Guys can quilt too, and you just proved it. Way to go. Blessings, Roberta

Very pretty! Love the way the batiks have a stripped look. I am working on a batik dresden too....

@ Cheryl: My sister said she would repaint her bedroom for that quilt. And my brother wants me to make him one just like. I have already bought the Batiks, enough to do four more.

@ Sharon: Yes I did enter the quilt in the Cameo Quilt Show in May 13th and 14th. And from all the responses on the forum, I'm no longer having doubts if it is good enough for a quilt show.

@ d.rickman: no I don't stay up all night, just half. I do not work so I just quilt. Although, I have neglected some of my household chores and now I should have a couple of hours to get to those chores or just start another quilt. Haven't made up my mind yet.
