Another gorgeous wall-hanging Eddie. I really like the batiks you chose. They add so much with so many colors in each circle & square. Great pattern too.

I ordered two Cappuccino Jelly Rolls & can't wait to get them to start making Christmas gifts. I'll have to order some bright colors to go with the dark chocolates/coffee colors.

Love the borders too! Not sure how I'd quilt it, but I think some circles/swirls in the circles would be nice. Not sure of the background. You might try a google image search for circle quilts and get some ideas about that.

Glad you liked the connecting threads batiks. I guess that's where I'll shop next! :)

I'm glad that you share all of your work with us!

This has been a LOT of fun working on and I'm enjoying the "artsy" aspect of it. I used to paint years ago, so this is a lot like using fabrics to paint. I still need to add the borders and will then start quilting it. I've decided that I really like piecing curves. :)

WOW! YOUR Quilt is so neat and Very Beautiful! Great Job!!! :XD: :thumbup: :-o
