Caring for Your Fabrics
Pre-Wash Your Fabrics: Batik fabrics contain wax and dye and must be cared for properly prior to using in quilting and crafting projects. SewBatik recommends pre-washing all new fabrics to minimize shrinkage and transfer of color using Synthrapol or Retayne, a concentrated surfactant. Synthrapol and Retayne are available in the Accessories section of Our Products within our website. Please note - if you use Synthrapol or Retayne to pre-wash your batiks, DO NOT wash in hot water as indicated on the bottle. Use the temperature as listed in the care instructions below.
   
  45" Stamped Batik, 45" Batik Spray, 104/8" Batik Backing, 45" Stamped Batik with Metallic Accent:
 
Machine wash warm with like colors on delicate cycle.
Do not bleach.
Tumble dry, low temperature.
Use cool iron if necessary. Iron metallic fabric on the non-metallic side of the fabric.
   
  42" Flannel Batik:
 
Machine wash cool to warm with like colors on delicate cycle.
This fabric retains extra dyestuff to achieve its deeply saturated appearance. We highly recommend that you pre-wash using Retayne or Synthrapol.
Do not bleach.
Tumble dry, low temperature.
Do not iron.
   
  45" Silk Batik:
 
Hand wash in cold water.
Do not bleach.
Do not iron.
Dry flat.
      
 
General Product Information
Our batik fabrics are hand made in Indonesia by the highly skilled batik craftspeople.  Like all hand made products, no two yards are exactly alike.  While we have gone to great lengths to standardize our fabrics to insure that you have a consistent experience each time you order our batiks, you will experience subtle differences in pattern, color and feel from one yard to the next.  Like paint, clay and other art media, these variables are all part of the unique charm of working with batik and contribute to the fabrics' special appeal.   Your completed projects will be one-of-a-kind keepsakes that will be treasured and admired for their beauty and individuality.
