    I got this lovely green batik at WM for 97 cents a fat quarter. The material isn't that bad and will work really good for a fill in with other batiks.
    There were other colors to and I was surprised to see them.

    I'm going to put them in a fine washables bag before I ever use them and run them through. I don't need to do all that work and go have them bleed green all over the piece.

    That is pretty and a good price! Seems like Wal-Mart has stepped up lately and is selling better fabrics.

    Please let us know if the fabric bleeds when prewashed - lookslike it will be very pretty as a blender with other batiks.
