I adore this quilt. A while back, OK, two years ago, I ordered a spectrum of hand dyed fabrics so I could replicate it. I made a few of the blocks from various Hawaiian pattern books. They're OK, but I need to have a consistant background that I won't run out of. It's a little problem I have, running out of background. I don't plan ahead.
OK, here's my idea: to make this quilt using batiks. Would it be too weird and disjointed? Would some of them pop and some retreat into the background? Would the Tonga Batiks I'm thinking of ordering look tacky with the more subdued batiks in my collection? Do I have enough things to work on at the moment?
