I love batiks, love the pattern SAS. So I know that I will love the finished quilt. I also will be watching how it comes together. I know that watching yours come together will help me when I make mine, so thanks. Look forward to seeing the next installment. BrendaK

"need" to be done first....

What a great batch of batiks, they have such wonderful colors and patterns, I think they are my favorite material to use for quilts, although not as many as I would like. I have a Mariner's Compass in the works in batiks, then I searched for 2-3 years for just the right batiks to use for a Boston Commons quilt that I saw on the cover of a quilt magazine, Traditional Quilters, I think; but it was made by the owner of Heartbeat Quilts on the Cape. I hope to get to that quilt in a year or two after making a king size quilt for my DS and DDIL, and a great number of quilts to make on my "Roundtoit List", so hope I get around to doing it soon. I think it's wonderful when you make a quilt for someone who literally "loves it to pieces", what a wonderful commentary on how well they loved the quilt. My son still has his Triple Irish Chain I made him when he was about 12, and even when he would leave and come back home, the quilt always came with him.

I'm going to follow along too, Ninnie! You always do such great work. I love this pattern, which many people say to paper piece, but I don't really enjoy that process. It will be interesting to see how you do it.
