Batik quilt finished
Batik quilt, created in a quilt as you go method.
The back of the quilt. It is about 60"x80".
l
Some leaves I picked up on my walk this morning.
I'm getting very frustrated with blogger. I may just give up.
Be well.
Fist time I am seeing this post. love batik, love your quilt. I don't know why your posts only show up for me every couple....I was missing you. xox Corrine
I find that I've got three of your post appearing all of a sudden out of nowhere. I love this quilt, and although I've already told you as much I don't mind repeating myself. What a beautiful pile of leaves. Isn't it wonderful how the leaves on different trees turn so many different colors and they look great when piled together? I used to love to rake leaves in the fall.
Blogger is the devil but it doesn't mean that you can't just dance around it. I would be so upset in a bloggin' world sans Jan. Your photos of both quilt of hand and quilt of colorful leaves of lovely. I see all the work and still I have not finished my Guatamalan beauty....shame on my name. Stay and spur me on. Oma Linda
Gorgeous quilt Jan. Both sides are so good that it would be hard to choose which is the back and which is the front. What amazing variety of leaf colour, the trees must be looking stunning. Please don't give up blogging.
A real autumn quilt, fits very well the leaves you picked up at your walk. It must be so beautiful over there when also thinking about the fotos from the post before.

Love your quilt and those beautiful leaves match the backing. So pretty.
Your quilt and leaves are both beautiful!! I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving!!

Beautiful quilt and can't believe you still have flowering plants. Hugs Bunny
Beautiful quilt and I am enjoying all your fall images in the last several posts. Fall colour appeals to me so much!
