ITA. The premise of this thread doesn't make sense.

What's weird is not that KQ is posing as the quilt police, but that they are announcing the mix of fabrics as a novel idea.

What's most likely is that more designers who usually design to show off their own fabric lines are producing batiks as well. And now you can buy 2 jelly rolls instead of one!

As an aside, if the quilt police are the most opinionated people in quilting, the most strident I've run into have worked in LQS. They can be wonderfully nice but super-opinionated at the same time.
