Great projects, and thanks for including mine. When I hear Batik I think Best from Bali, Island Batik. It’s the fabric weight and best color combinations that make Island Batik the best on the market. The other brands are thinner and some are just not as pretty.

Nice colors!

I think of beautiful fabric to create beautiful quilts! Also, it reminds me of the smell of my junior high art class when we made our own batik fabric out of pillowcases–the smell of hot wax.
