My sweet hubby installed hooks on our patio for me to take pictures (I think he was tired of holding my quilts for photos). I had a huge box of batik scraps and decided one of my patterns, "Mystic Ponds" would be perfect. Taking a few liberties with the pattern, I made the quilt a little scrappier and widened the border. I wanted to only use the stash on hand, so some of the pieces were smaller than called for.
A sneak at the backing fabric - I tend to buy large pieces when they are on sale, so they don't always match perfectly. However, it works.
For the quilting .... freehand swirls.

That's beautiful, Jamie! I saw that pattern advertised on the back of Summer Wedding and thought it looked like fun - now I know it would be! Love it with the batiks!
