I just received the most gorgeous batiks from todaysquilting.com and they're still no sale. I'm getting ready to place another order. Can't help myself! One of the pieces I received is Artisan Batik Rivoli (amdm-9493-217) it's so beautiful; it's in shades of blue and purple with a print that looks like wings and feathers. I've ordered from them several times and always pleased with my purchase. And again no connection to this company

I love Batiks, but have yet to make anything with them. Just too expensive for me!

I love batiks and have slowly acquired a stash. I have tried to start a project with them several times, then chicken out. They are so beautiful it is hard for me to imagine cutting them!! LOL! I will keep trying and one day I will have a beautiful batik quilt! :)

Another great source for very nice batiks at GREAT price is Connecting Threads. I have ordered a lot of batiks from them, and they are very nice weight, not waxy feeling, and nice colors and patterns. They are the most inexpensive source I have found and I have been VERY HAPPY with them!!

I will have to check this out. I love batiks, I bought some from Connecting Threads that are just beautiful. I found them on sale, now I just have to figure out what I want to use them for.
Thanks for sharing the site.

There are many sites that have sales on batiks. I've seen the brand name ones as low as $6 lately. Much better than the going rate of $13 at the LQS. I've found many new to me stores thru the http://www.quiltshops.com/ website. Check them out if you haven't already!
