I've definitely done this. The tone on tones can pull out the more subtle colors in the batiks, but not make the whole quilt to mushy. I personally prefer quilts with a bit more contrast and definition so I personally don't make a quilt with all batiks. This is, though, a personal choice... I've seen amazing quilts with all batiks, so it depends on the look you are going for.
