batiks in blues

My friend JZ's batik quilt. 

This was fun to quilt for her.  She gifted it to her sister at Christmastime.

Lucky sister.

:)

I love how she added the row of red batik squares down the blue square panels. 

And the creamy light blue coloums add just the right softness.

a sneak peak. . .

 . . . I promised a sneak peak. . . 

. . . just of the back so as not to spoil the surprise. . .

 . . .she wanted pretty quilting; not stiff as a board so we chose Quilter's Dream Wool. . .

. . . I love the loftiness it adds.
