Has anyone made a rag quilt out of batiks? I'm wondering if the fabric would fray up nicely.

It is tightly woven, not sure it will fray at all. We'll hear what others say.:)
|
Personally, I wouldn't. One of the nice qualities of batik fabrics is that they don't fray. Just a humble opinion!
|
I wouldn't, but it is a personal choice. I really like the way flannel frays and it is so cuddly, so that is what I use.
|
As the others have said, batiks do not ravel and fray.
|
you could clip the seams but they would not fray. still, it's your choice.
|
I've only made rag quilts out of flannel. You could make a few trial squares sewed like a rag quilt and test it to see if you like the looks of it using batiks. I really don't think it will "rag" but give a sample a try.....that way you will know for sure.
