Amazing - As a gentleman and beginning quilter, I was fascinated by the designs found in the "Easy Art Quilts" book. I tried my luck with the batiks that I had, and the result is shown in the photo. I gave this quilt to a relative for a graduation gift, but my wife missed it so much, that I did another one. This time, I made it slightly larger, and used more purple based colors. I am anxious to try other patterns found in the book by Christiane.
