Mix 'em up! I, like all the others have said, do it all the time. I also hand quilt and have no issues with that aspect either. Enjoy.

There shouldn't be any problems but remember one thing, not all batiks are all cotton, some are rayon which has a drape to it. I love batiks and have a whole quilt made with the cotton one.

Me too. Sometimes only batiks will give me a shade of the color I need. And, I love Edyta Star. That woman's color and print size sense is amazing.

I love mixing batiks with other fabrics, and do so in just about every bed quilt I make. I think you will like the end result.
