Hi Sandy!
There are three batiks in the leaf and one in the stem... then the background... I used the same batik for the green border as the stem... so 5 colors total...

Cheers!

This is just gorgeous!!!!!! I love it. Gosh you did a great job! How did you match up 3 Batiks so well for your leaves? I have trouble matching Batiks. Awesome job girl. I need some of you to go shopping with me to help match fabrics, I think. Thanks for sharing. Now I have to go wipe the drool off. LOL

I love your lap quilt. The colors are wonderful. I am making quilts for our 2 oldest grandaughters out of batiks. They both like tie dyed fabrics.
