I completely agree with you about not mixing batiks and other fabrics but I know others are going to disagree. To me it's like dressing in "Sunday-go-to-meeting" clothes and wearing sneakers!

The only negative I have come across is when making a quilt you need all batiks. I have tried incorporating batiks and other cotton fabrics and they just don't seem to work together.
The lapquilt I made with batiks I machine quilted, using a walking foot on my Bernina 180 doing outline
quilting and had no problem.
