Default Selvage on Batiks?
I think there is just a couple threads that need to be trimmed off? Is my memory correct? Help me out.

More than just a few threads. Hold the edge up to a light and you can see the difference in the weave. The selvage is more tightly woven, even on batiks.

Yes their are selvages and I cut about the same amount off (1/2") as any other fabric.
