Why do they need to do that? Batiks are beautiful as they are. Hope they don't touch up their other phots of what they actually sell.

What maroons. Imagine how much fabric they could sell if they actually pictured it as is.

So much for that, hey? Would have been a good match to that great
fabric you found a few weeks ago. :D Maybe someone will get the idea. ;-)

Actually it looks like a photo-montage of several shapes (see the cut out leaves shapes) and perhaps several fabrics? Unfortunately it is just a dream....

I was disappointed lately when ordering a rayon batik for a jacket. I bought the pattern and the store also had the fabric for sale. Well, the batik they sent did NOT look like what they posted online. I emailed the owner who stated, "I cannot change my web site with each hand-dyed bolt I receive." She did offer to refund me if I sent the fabric back. Very annoying in that the fabric online was very bright and what I received, very drab!

If this IS what they used for the header, I'd have to agree that it's photoshopped.

FD is usually pretty quick about responding to inquiries. Please let us know what they said!

I love this fabric, used it as a challenge fabric with hard candy bali pops.
