Bits & Pieces of Batiks

Thursday, March 30, 2023

The name of this new batik fabric collection is Bits & Pieces - so I used bits and pieces of it to make a fun mini quilt with 3-D butterflies!

The fabric is a signature collection by Sherry of Powered by Quilting and made by Island Batik, and this week, there are several bloggers showing off what they made with the new fabrics! Be sure to visit the other bloggers posts (listed at the bottom of this post) to see what they made with the same fabric!

It's a tradition now! I make a circle quilt every year for Pi Day!

I've made a Pi Day quilt every year since 2017! YES! Do you want to see them all??

When I saw the new red, white, and blue Land of the Brave fabrics from Riley Blake Designs, I immediately thought they would be perfect for a picnic quilt!
