In my garden - A modern batik challenge

As an Island Batik Ambassador the challenge for May was to make a modern quilt. I'm not sure what a modern quilt is, but I didn't want to make ordinary blocks for this quilt. The result at least showcase the beautiful Island Batik fabrics coming to your local shops soon. And I'm really in love with those fruit fabrics. They come in many different colours.

The size of my quilt is 36" x 40", and I'm going to hang it on the wall. I quilted it with Superior Thread in two different colours.
