Batik giveaway


I anticipate that this giveaway will be popular - people seem to love batiks (me too) and there are eleven 12" blocks here. I had 20 from a swap, and picked out my favourite 9 for the baby quilt top I showed yesterday. I'm sure these would make a lovely baby quilt or small quilt either for yourself or as a charity project (one more could easily be made if you want to set 3 blocks by 4 blocks). Anyway, yes, I could in theory make up a top and donate it to charity, but a) I do have a stack waiting to go already and b)it might never get done, so I'd rather rehome them elsewhere. If you win them, you are welcome to keep them for yourself or donate to charity, or whatever you like - I attach no strings to my giveaways, though I do love to see what you do with them! As usual, to be enterred into the draw, leave a comment on this post before Sunday.

I love batiks and need to downsize some of those as well....I haven't decided what to do for my Manic Monday yet, maybe I'll follow your lead :D (don't put me in for the drawing, just rambling here)

Count me in Kate. I have a niece who is having a baby in the early summer. These lovely blocks would save me some work.

Hi Kate, do count me in the batiks are great.

I'm getting greedy. Even though I just won your last giveaway I would love the batiks. My guild is doing a challenge quilt that has to be all batiks, what a head start I'd have!

I love batiks. I would probably make them into a charity quilt. (o.k. Sequana - if you win them you can just pass them right along to me)
