Remember when I talked about batik in Bali here? Well I bought a few pieces and thought, what better way to share the , hold onto summer, and spread a little joy from Bali than to give a Batik piece away. I love the patterns, colors, and complexity in Batik cloth. They’re also super versatile and can be used as a dress, sarong, or as a fashionable throw in your living room!
This piece is large and hard to photograph, but here are a few shots (color is a bit closer to first picture and the borders are gold).

Oh wow – I’d absolutely love to win this! It’d be an unexpected table cloth for an informal gathering. And after dinner, provided it’s not a mess, I can wrap it around my waist for drinks on the patio!
Fingers crossed!

This is so sweet! Lovely fabric, I would love to use it here over my jeans to spice up my look a bit (it’s so cold here always…). But elsewhere, it would make a lovely wrap sans jeans!
I would definitely wear it as a sarong…this fabric is so beautiful…I love it!
It’s a beautiful cloth! With the cold weather approaching, I would wrap it around my neck and use it as a scarf.
it is beautiful. i would use it as a throw in my livingroom, it matches my couch nicely.
I love the idea of using this as a table cloth!
Of course I follow–on Twitter, too.
The print of this material is absolutely gorgeous! x
