I Am taking a class from Jackie now, Glacier Star, using batiks and she is excellent teacher. Batiks are easier with paper piecing.

I've seen some of the Niemeyer designed fabric and it isn't batik.
I'm also taking a Jamie Wallen class and one with Tia Curtis--both long arm classes. My daughter is taking one on using color with Kerr & Ringle , a Zentangle thread painting on the DSM and another one (you'd think I'd remember since I paid for them! LOL!)
So batik or no?? I like it, but have never used it with paper piecing.

All of the Judy Niemeyer quilt projects that I'm working on are out of Batiks. I love them. I don't think you can go wrong using Batiks. Good luck and I think you will love her quilts.
