Thank you for your kind comments! I too, am very excited for this swap...the hardest part will be choosing the fabrics :)
With batiks the possibilities are endless.....
I thought choosing the fabrics would be the hardest part too... but having never worked with batiks before, boy are they a pain to prewash! The dye just keeps bleeding out. Good thing I had this forum to search for tips on. Vinegar in the water seems to help some.
Or you can use "ColorCatcher" by Shout when you wash your fabric.
