Hi friends!
A couple of weeks ago, in this blog post, I introduced Moonlight Sky- a new batik line by Island Batik. Today I want to show you a few more projects using it and at the end of this post, you can enter a giveaway of a FQ bundle of the fabrics!
The Fabric
Moonlight Sky, a new batik line, was designed by Kathy Engle of Island Batik for me! I love all the rich blues and deep purples and black and white prints!
And that pop of green is so fun!
The Quilts
Last time I showed you Deep Space,
and Solar Energy.
Today let’s look a few more quilts using the Moonlight Sky line!
Twilight Sky
Twilight Sky is another new star quilt- who doesn’t love stars?
For this quilt, I used the black tone on tone for the background to really resemble the night sky- all dark and moody with the stars twinkling at you!
The pattern has 2 sizes- lap and queen.
Crystal Falls
Crystal Falls is a triangle quilt. I happen to love triangle quilts! Ever since I made my first one for a magazine, I love how you can use the same basic layout to create different designs.
This arrangement reminded me a a waterfall. Hence the name!
The pattern has 4 sizes- crib, youth, lap and queen!
Pack it Up!
These next few patterns all work with the Mini Braid template.
Pack it Up! is one of my most popular patterns and I love coloring it in new fabrics!
Doesn’t it look fabulous in this new batik line, Moonlight Sky?
If you haven’t made one yet, the pattern has 4 sizes so you can make one to fit whatever stuff you need to pack!
Jot it Down!
Jot it Down! is a fun quick notebook cover!
These make great gifts for friends (especially your book club friends!), kids and anyone who loves to write things down!
Top This!
Top This! is just a fun to make table runner!
