Argyle, Anyone?

You know, before my relatively recent infatuation with Civil War fabrics, I was a batik gal through and through.  Couldn't get enough of 'em.  I've got a big, deep Rubbermaid tub of batiks, some FQs but mostly odd pieces left over from ten or twelve years of projects.

I had a 30s kind of a gig awhile back and it ran its course to the point where I just don't want a lot to do with 30s, with the exception of Itsy Bitsy who is on my UFO challenge list.  And something tells me that the CW craze will run out in good time.

And the batiks will go on.

Someone sent me an unfamiliar magazine as a hostess gift for a swap, and perusing it last week presented me with a stunning batik quilt that I couldn't resist.  So the Civil War is on hiatus (I know it isn't going anywhere fast) and General Sherman can just sit there and wait until I get back.  Because I'm just loving and reveling in these batiks.  The quilt in the magazine had a name, but this baby has got to be something like Argyle Adventure.  Oh, I'm lovin' it!
