Batik Quilting Fabric

Batiks are dyed with a wax-resist process that leaves a mottled, hand-made look, and they're woven more tightly than most quilting cotton — which means crisp piecing and less fraying.

Not harder, just a little different — the tight weave holds a sharp point well but can be firmer under the needle. A fresh sharp needle keeps it smooth.

Their depth and movement make batiks perfect for landscapes, watercolor-style quilts, and anywhere you want rich color without a defined print.
