    Don't you just LOVE Batiks? I sure do! No right or wrong side in my opinion...

    the right side is the side I like best!
    and I am not even consistant. because of the mottling in the fabric and the print, I may like one side near the selvage and another side in the middle!

    Put the side up that has the most appeal. sometimes I like the sharper side and sometimes the softer look, other times I can not tell.

    Not with batiks but with regular fabric one of my friends uses tha back side. She is able to look at clearance Christmas and Halloween fabric, uses the back side in sashing etc. for quilts along with fabrics from shirts and other finds. Her quilts look awesome.

    Has anyone ever done a D9P in Batik? I have some batik fabric and wanted to see what it would look like to do the D9P. Possibly for a baby Quilt..?
