Perhaps my Batiks aren't real ones (grins). I love working with them. On the other hand, I have some fabric that came from Ghana. My boss tries to bring some back for me each year. THOSE fabrics are very dense and I haven't worked with them yet. They also feel stiff so not sure how to wash them even.
