I don't like batiks either- I'm too traditional. And I thought I was the only one who didn't like them.

I'm joining you regarding the batiks. I always think they look like the pattern 'ran'. I guess there is just 3 of us who don't like them. :D
well, I will say that some ppl have a gift for using them, but many ppl don't. In MHO...but, I think it can be a very nice accent and I am going to do something next month using some. It will be my first batik project.
All said, it is not at the top of my list. I have a good book on landscape quilts and I think batiks will be smashing for that. It's ok, to have preferences, and life is too short to spend time on things that just don't do it for you...so if you already have stuff you don't like, put it on the back side of things, or give away, but if it makes your motor hum to toss it, well...just don't make me saaay it, lol! :wink:
