Batik Queen Posing

Here it is! I am thrilled with the outcome. I did wash it today and give it the old look that is my trademark. The cats helped me hang it and did their best to mess up the pictures-the wind 'helped', too but I perservered! In case you haven't noticed , I am thrilled with my Mega Quilter and Inspira frame-I would never have been able to qult so elaborately if I didn't have it.

I bought this kit when we had first moved here, and it just spoke Florida to me-now with the palm tree, it really does!

Here is a close-up of the back-Since the machine only has a 6" design space, this pattern of the trees is used twice across each 12" row of blocks. The borders have a curved design to symbolize the ocean waves.

    Can't wait to see it in person...
