(It's not actually a batik - it's got tiny speckles spattered all over it in various yellow-orange shades - but it fits very nicely with them.) Is it a batik? I love the explosions in the golden yellow - like a party going on the fabric!<br /><br />I usually use it as a highlight, mixed in with the yellow and red batiks, maybe some light blue to make the orange pop? You might be able to see some of the fabric in the quilt in my icon.<br /><br />And, if I have never bought fabric for the selvages, you and others have tuned me in to using them instead of cutting them off and discarding them! Now I need a new box for my selvage strips!<br /><br />(long comment is long)Selhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11656224582184432424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527612360558538909.post-75276831401318885592011-03-22T14:12:50.970-07:002011-03-22T14:12:50.970-07:00ha, ha, ha that is just too funny.
