Young, happy and fancy-free - this collection is like a breath of new Spring air! Maybe it’s the carefree daisies that make this so charming. Or maybe the cool, clean colors. Whatever the reason, the entire group is fun and young. A special group of solid burlaps was designed to accompany the group - look at the colors! And one last happy note - the faux patchwork can be cut apart for blocks, but also used as running yard- age.

Inspired by Bali woodblock printing, our new Balinesia group is an exquisite combination of opulent designs with the look of hand-dyed Balis.

The accompanying medallion, leaf prints, and mini-prints are the perfect add-ons to the group.

Sometimes a Bali batik comes along that just takes your breath away. It’s the depth of color, the subtleties, and the richness of the product that creates a sense of awe. That’s the effect our Landscape Balis had on everyone in the office. These batiks have a graduated striped appearance that is painterly and beautiful. The colors gradate in shades of sky blue, ocean green, sunset orange, deep earth. The result is a stunning collection of linear textures that can be used for scenics, backgrounds, handbags and accessories or beautiful quilt blocks.PRINTS SHOWN AT 20% OF ACTUAL SIZE delivery date: sept/oct | 21 skus 01 Pastel Multi Landscape 7056 02 Pink/Peach 03 Yellow/Peach04 Coral 05 Aqua 06 Powder Blue10 Sunset Sky 11 Mountain Mist 12 Mountain Pass13 Green/Gold/Orange 14 Blue/Green/Gold 15 Blue/Green/Orange16 River Bank 17 Earth/Violet/Indigo 18 Deep Waters19 Ocean Storm 20 Lake 21 Land and Sea22 Tropical Sea 23 Turquoise Sea 24 Emerald IsleBenartex, LLC • 132 West 36th street, 4th floor • New York, NY 10018 • T: 212-840-3250 • www.benartex.com
