Falling in love with Kayana Autumn Collection from Banyan Batiks
The secret to this easy project is the beautiful masterpiece #80296-25 from the Kayana Autumn collection as its color changes from one selvage to the other. It’s the perfect key element for the pattern I have in mind.
The main piece of the collection features the color range of the complete collection in a masterful way.
fabrics
- 1½ yds #80296-25 from the Kayana Autumn collection for the top and backing
- ⅛ yd each of 6 coordinating fabrics from the Kayana Autumn collection
- 26” x 38” batting
cutting instructions
Main fabric
- Cut one 12½” piece (D) (ensure this is cut from selvage to selvage)
