I remember some talk about batiks a while back and it was mentioned that red batiks are not as plentiful as other colors. I was at Hancock Fabrics yesterday and found a beautiful red batik. Don't remember the manufacturer but it's a lovely shade of red and was 50% off! If you have a Hancock Fabrics close and like batiks, go check them out. Don't know if they have the same sale online or not, but if you need red, it would be worth checking into.
