“Colorful Batik Panel Quilts” by Judith Vincentz Gula is a delightful exploration into the world of quilting, offering a fusion of traditional techniques and artistic innovation. Gula expertly guides readers through the process of creating bold and graphic quilts using handmade batik fabric panels sourced from Indonesian artisans.
What sets this book apart is its emphasis on creativity and personal expression.

Gula’s passion for quilting shines through in her writing, and her expertise as a fabric artist is evident in the thoughtful design process outlined in the book. Whether you’re a novice quilter looking to hone your skills or an experienced crafter seeking fresh inspiration, “Colorful Batik Panel Quilts” offers something for everyone.

Its combination of instructional guidance, artistic inspiration, and cultural appreciation makes it a valuable resource for quilters of all backgrounds.

Jerri,
I sleep every night under a quilt my grandmother made. The thing I love about sleeping with quilts is they are both warm and cool at the same time. So glad you have wonderful memories of quilting with your grandmother. Thanks for sharing.
