Default great Batik fabric prices

I am planning my first order here...anyone shopped at BaliBatiks before? The fabrics look great, prices are excellent and shipping is free. They also have backing for $9.99. They have great variations in color of the solids that would be perfect for a french braid or bargello quilt.

The batiks are beautiful! Be careful, the prices are for 1/2 yard.

Just checked thier collection looks fantastic, the prints look good, quite interested in the 108" backing fabric very useful, 205 thread count

I wondered if the weight is suitable for other uses. Will try and get a sample.

Do they offer a sample service..? can’t seem to see the option on their website.

Yes, I am aware it's 1/2 yd pricing...many places are doing that now. Around here, batiks are in the $12-14/yd range, so $4.25 half yd is pretty good. The best prices are on the pre-cuts. The 40 pc strip sets are only $21.99 which is less than 1/2 the price locally.

I'd say that is a very good half yard price.
