Specific fabric exchanges

[Dawn S.]

That sounds like a great idea. I am still looking for cream batiks around this area. So, far I have been unsuccessful. I will get online tomorrow and see what I can find there. Brights will be great.

Maybe some of these would work? http://www.sewbatik.com/SearchResult...CategoryID=114

When it comes to shopping online for batiks (of course we look at our LQS first), this is my favorite:
http://www.seawatchfabrics.com/index.php
Treat yourself She has colorways that are exclusive to her shop. Her prices are very reasonable, the quality is excellent, and I believe she is still offering free postage on orders over $30. DEAL! Grab a cuppa and look through her amazing selection; quite the treat.

Thanks, Jan and Margo--I will check them out today.

OK, if I have my count right(did a database this morning) we have 16 members wanting to be in the batiks with cream/white/beige on one side. That represents 10 states in the USA and one each from Canada, United Kingdom and Australia. I will keep watching this post and let you know when we are ready to go. In the mean time, if you will send me you email address I will send you my snail mail address. Thanks ladies (no guys joining us--yet).

Ritzy, I would love to join you in the Batik/Cream HST Exchange. I just completed a project this month and was surprised that I could find 16 light batiks in my stash under my dining room table. I know I have a lot more in the boxes in my living room. Yes, I have taken over the common area of my house. My family, friends and neighbors get to be in the middle of my creativity.

Welcome Susan. OK ladies, I have spent all morning online (after failing to find any in the area) looking for cream batiks and what I have found is that they all have different colors in with them. So, I just want you to be aware of that. Also, this leads me to the conclusion that if you want to use a cream/white/beige fabric that is not batik--go for it.

[Susan T.]

I have several bright batiks. I am looking for neautral batiks also. This sounds so fun

[Susan T.]

I'd like batik with cream too

I'm interested in batik w/cream color on one side. I COULD be interested in just cream with greens, or I could go with anything with cream. -- Naomi in Oregon

[Naomi W.]

I would be interested in a batik exchange as well. Beige on one side or just batiks--I'm in. Let us know where to send.
Thanks-- MC

I am so in for the batik and cream or white count me in on that one and send me an address where to send them :-) )

Well, a final decision has to be made at some point - batik and beige print, batik and light batik, or whatever. No batik is solid, so don't anticipate finding a flat beige batik. And actually, a flat beige would be booooorrrrrriiiiinnnnngggg! Some beiges are pinkish, some yellowish, and some greenish. So I'm thinkin' just two contrasting batiks - a darkish and a lightish (maybe even pale blue or lilac). My 2 cents. Waiting for the final verdict. :|

Hi - I'm in the big exchange but would also be interested in the neutral/batik exchange if it is going to actually take place. Just let me know if/when it's a "GO".
Terrie from Montreal, Canada TQS name crocus999 I love batiks! I think batiks with any neutral would be good.(IMHO)
