Island Batik blog hop the four seasons

Isn't this fabric gorgeous?




This is the Sunflower Seranade collection. My season is summer, and I had a tough time deciding what to do.  I have always loved the churn dash. I found this pattern by Quilt District and I am doing a review on, which will be posted next week.






I have some of the blocks done, and I will get at least the top done by next week. Can't guarantee the date, though.


I have enjoyed this past year as an ambassador. I will not be doing it this year, as there are other things I want to do, and working full time, I can't do it all.

I am doing a giveaway for both posts. You will get some wonderful Batik fabrics. To enter you must be in the U.S. and just leave a comment below.

    Beautiful fabric! Good Luck in working on your project.

    Too bad that we out-of-country people miss out, once again, especially when the fabric is so nice. :(
