What quilt designs are the most appropriate for use of Batiks? I just chose one for the feature square of a D9P baby-girl quilt and I adore them. Should batiks be in the same quilt as regular screen-print fabrics? Should batiks be used in traditional or colonial-style quilt blocks or just in modern designs?

I use them in all different designs from traditional , bargello, etc.
They really do go with everything. One of the most fabulous quilts I ever saw was a Baltimore Album done in batiks .. it was breath taking.

I love them and think they should be used everywhere, all the time! ;-)

The sky is the limit when it comes to using batiks. You can take a tradtional pattern and give it a modern look or twist simply by using batiks

which one isn't??? that's my humble opinion, at least!

use them in any design you like along with any other fabrics you enjoy working with - there aren't any rules

Use 'em how ever you wanna! :)

I like the looks of them in bargello and stained glass projects. But, there are a ton of different ways to use them too. ;)

Thanks all - I am going to try really hard not to buy any fabric until I finish my current work-in-progress, but I can't wait to try an all-batik! :)
