Scrappy Batik runner
I love working with Batik more and more :-) I put together a couple of these scrappy runners. The pattern was in a magazine a few years back, sorry I don't remember which one. It is a great way to use up some scraps. I hope to finish quilting this one today so I will keep my post short as I have a long list of 'to do's' today. It is receiving custom in each batik strip and then a stipple in the white blocks which will get appliqued leaves when I am all done with the quilting. It makes it easier to quilt that way without the leaves to maneuver around.
Pretty batiks :) Are you going to applique the leaves with your long arm? Have you seen this technique?
ReplyDeletenever thought of adding the applique after the quilting!
ReplyDeleteRunners are a great way to use up scraps and practice a bit of Fmq whether on a longarm or domestic machine! Thanks for the suggestion and linking up to #scraptastictuesday
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty Batiks. I still hope to see what it looks like on the back after the appliqué is added. :)
