I think it could be a tonal print. I don't think I have ever seen batiks in the neutral colors we are talking about. I am sure they are out there--I just haven't seen them yet. Right now we are up to nine people for this exchange. I am going to give it at least another week and then discuss what we will all need to know and do. Sound ok? -
Ritzy,
Add me to the list of those interested in doing batiks & cream HST's. I have some batiks in off white, cream colors but they are hard to find. A couple of large quilt shops in MN stock them: Gruber's in St Cloud, MN & Blue Bamboo in Plymouth, MN. I have also ordered from Hancock's of Paducah- they have a nice selection of white tones, off white, creamy colored batiks. I also ordered papers today.

After the Sisterhood HST exchange is over, I'd be interested in a strip exchange that could be used to make several of the quilts in Edyta's book, Friendship Strips & Scraps, including the Farmhouse Quilt and the Spool Quilt. And batiks would be beautiful for that exchange.

I would say that a tone on tone would be OK, Jeanine.

Is this the cream color you are looking for? If so I have plenty and will join the group.

I would also be interested in the stripy exchange when it happens.Comment

Ladies, I think a strip exchange would be wonderful (after the Sisterhood HST exchange, of course). Who doesn't have plenty of strips lying around. Like you two, I think the spool quilt and farmhouse quilts are adorable! Will have to add some applique though - can't help it... I just ordered Edyta's Friendship Strips & Scraps book. It just looked like too much fun.Originally posted by MargoComment

Count me in on the batik with cream! Cream batiks are luscious!

Count me in. I would love to do a batik with cream. I have a couple of cream batiks. Can we use brights with the cream? and supply them in lots of 8 in the same colour? that way you can make star points out of the same colour ways.
Thanks for organising this Ritzy.
all the best
