    I'm collecting batiks for a batik quilt, which is hard since I'm on a fabric diet! I'd love a chance to win these. Thanks, and Merry Christmas! :0)

    I am collecting bright batiks like this to make myself a bed quilt. I'm also on a fabric diet so it may take a while, but I decided to sew as I go. It'll take quite a while to make a bed quilt anyhow. Merry Christmas! cdahlgren at live dot com
