This is a backing, fusible batting and raw edge batik strips.  They are stitched down with 2-3 rows of straight stitching by machine with rayon embroidery thread.  It is approximately 17" x 21.5".

Rectangle kits for colorwash


Here are 2 sample selections of one piece each of 120 different fabrics, regular quilting cotton (not batik). Pieces 2.5" x 4.5".  There are 2 kits alike of one of the trays, the rest of the kits are a variation of the other tray (so all kits are not identical).  The kits are intended as starter packages for a group from which you could assemble a colorwash quilt top.  You would need to add additional fabrics from your own stash.
 

Blue and Rosey Red.

This quilt TOP is made with blocks called "Strips that Sizzle" explained in a book by the same name written by Margaret Miller.  First fabric is cut in strips, then sewn in stratas, then cut into blocks. The blocks are then taken to the design wall and played with until the layout is pleasing. This is a quilt TOP ready to quilt and it is 57.5" square.
Here is a closeup of the border fabrics.  The blues lean toward periwinkle and the reds are rosy.
