The 108" wide from SewBatik.com is printed on goods that are NOT like regular batiks - for a reason. Regular batiks are printed on a very high thread count fabric. When used on a longarm there can be problems with threads breaking instead of parting for the needle. By using a threadcount closer to that of quilt shop quality quilting fabrics, the backs behave better during the quilting process. I LOVE quilting on their wide backs!
