BATIKS
BATIKS are a type of fabric that is made using a traditional dyeing technique called batik. This technique involves applying wax to the fabric in a specific pattern, and then dyeing the fabric. The wax resists the dye and creates a pattern on the fabric. This process can be repeated multiple times with different colors, creating intricate and unique designs on the fabric.
Batik fabrics are popular among quilters and sewers because of their vibrant colors and intricate designs. They are commonly used in quilting, clothing, and home decor projects. Batik fabrics are available in a wide range of colors and patterns, from bright and bold to soft and subtle. They are also available in a variety of substrates, including cotton, rayon, and silk.
When working with batik fabrics, it's important to keep in mind that they may bleed or fade if not properly cared for. It's recommended to prewash batik fabrics in cold water before use to remove any excess dye and prevent bleeding. Batik fabrics can also be ironed on a low setting with a pressing cloth to protect the wax and design.
