Batik

Batik quilting fabric is a type of fabric that combines the traditional art of batik with the practicality of quilting.

It features intricate designs and vibrant colors that are created using a wax-resist dyeing technique. In batik quilting, hot wax is applied to the fabric in specific patterns using a tool called a tjanting or a stamp. The wax acts as a resist, preventing the dye from penetrating certain areas of the fabric.

After the wax is applied, the fabric is submerged in dye, allowing the colors to seep into the untreated areas. This process can be repeated multiple times to achieve intricate designs and vibrant hues.
