Love batiks. I love the way they look, how they feel, not crazy about price now days. I have a pretty good stash, not as much as I use too, made a 120 x 120 quilt with my stash so that used up a lot of it. Like just about any color, my favorite is a red that is on the back side of the quilt, just a square, but it is sooo pretty. My avatar is made out of batiks also and the border is one of my favorites too. Have bought some on ebay too and someone on one of the message boards sent me quite a bit just because I posted how I loved them and she had won some in a raffle and she wasn't a batik lover. Very nice of her to do that and nearly everything she sent was just beautiful.
