These are oh-so colorful...maybe even too much color for me, but I have to finish it now. The HST's are made as of today - nearly 130 of them I think, in just about a zillion different batik pieces. The ivory half of the HSTs is also scrappy so if you see a variation of color, it is intentional to match the center of the quilt. I am currently working on the 3rd intertwining border section, with 5 more to go. Unfortunately I have no pale orange batik left for one of them, and no local store that caries that approximate shade. I may also make up some more little dots to sprinkle on the quilt strategically. I have one more work day (aka school day) before the holidays...and a giant roll of my eyes at the prospect of having my kids home for 11 days straight. Thankfully, my husband will be home much of that too to front their busyness so I can play.

This is coming along nicely, I love your colour selection. Are you going to enter it into a show?
Gorgeous!! I think the colors are fantastic. I think it's going to be stunning once it's quilted. Are you going to bedazzle it? Ribbons in your future for sure. I'm right there with you with the kids being home. Tis the season!! Have a very Merry Christmas!
