Lyla's quilt

I got Lyla's quilt planned! I am doing a pattern called Patience Corner. Maybe some of that patience will rub off on me! Sorry. Anyway, the pattern is really simple, but I think it's going to be really striking when the quilt is done. And, the best part is that I'm doing it all out of Batik scraps! I had a lot of backing material from my Mardi Gras quilt left over - I've had it for years! It is light purple and green with some blue and then with gold lightning strike-like threads running through it. It's very pretty. Surrounding that Batik will be the leftover purple Batiks from the quilt on my bed and the leftover purple, blue, and green Batik from a quilt that I don't remember. I thought it was from Laura's quilt, but I just looked at the picture and that fabric looked quite different. Hmmm. Ah ha! I found it. It's from the quilt I made for Anna and Stephen when they got married. It is the fabric that is surrounding the monkey wrench pattern (which is the pinky-purple). Anyway, I'll have to take a picture of my drawing of it and post it like I did for Seth's.
