All of mine are lights - many of the pastel batiks have a lightly colored mottled look - personally, I think they will be beautiful when mixed together.

Oops! Too late...already have mine well on the way with "lights" not creams. It was posted earlier that cream batiks were
difficult to obtain....so it was switched to "light" to be easier for all.

I'm good with one for everyone! I'm thinking it won't go much higher in numbers. I'll just keep cranking them out!

BATIKS!! Batiks-R-Us!!! 2 Batiks!

I agree with Judy from N.Y.---one side should be cream, not necessarily all cream because most of the Batiks I've seen have a small amount of pastels throughout. The first exchange will accept the different lights tho. We should stick to the original plan with no exceptions. Sorry, I don't want to sound mean but

I think this would be fun. Paula

Whatever you say Ritzy is fine with me.

Judy,
You got it right! I'll do whatever is good for Ritzy. I can just see 1,000 member sign up and I have to eat my words. LOL

Hey Ritz....you're the "boss"....if the equal HST's to participants would be great for you, just say the word

Ladies out there...what do you think : : :

Hmmm, I not sure what I may have said but I was thinking that the cream colored I have seen all have other colors in them such as yellow, blue, etc. But yes, dark or medium on one side and a cream on the other all batiks. Good contrast. Sorry if I have frustrated you all.

Ritzy, it would make sense for us to send one for each member participating- if 120 participate then we send 120. It really would make it easier for you, especially if no one else is helping you do the sorting. It sounds like it would be a big job for you, if I lived near you I would help, but alas I'm a little to far away. You are a brave lady to take on this task and I thank you.

I do think I remember that the exchange is cream on one side and dark or medium on the other side. I think if we start strething the guideline, it will lead to some dissapointments especially when many of us went and bought cream batiks to do this and have most of them done already. I personally set my site on a cream and scrap quilt the Tree one from her book. Thanks for letting me input. Sandy in NY

Judy--that would be the easiest thing for me if you are all up to it. Keep in mind that if there are 100 people and they all send 100 you will each get one from each; if you and a few others send 200 you will get a lot of your own back. So, easiest is if everyone sends the same amount and I don't know how everyone else feels about that.
