I made this patchwork batik today. It's about 12x14cm and I'm planning to make it into a cover of one of my dolls house beds. I only 'blobbed' the wax once or twice so I'm quite pleased with it!
Batik is not from Malaysia, but Indonesia! Don't be surprised, Malaysia is only a cheater!!!! Fuck Malaysia!! Indonesian Rules!!!
There's a woman, still make a batik. Hand made batik is cost from 455.000 rp, or approx. 50 USD, depends on how long and the complexicity.
50 x 71 - Pieced the blocks some 10 years ago, but never finished. Do not remember the teachers name or what the pattern is called.
Will be donated to Hopes & Dreams Quilt Challenge for ALS.
Stained glass block for Maureen. It took longer to pick out and cut the fabrics than to assemble it!
a couple shirts I did last year... first time using soy wax for batik. It works great for clothing, because it washes out (unlike real wax!) Just have to remember not to use warm water for each dye bath, because it'll melt the previous layers of wax. (duh)
I had to redo several areas because of that. Will definitely have to try it again.
Here you can find and buy many beautiful Solo-pattern-styled Batik in home industry center named Kampung Kauman. It's located near Kraton Surakarta, next to Pasar Klewer.
Some batik scraps. I think I'll make a Log Cabin Spiral in kind of a rainbow progression. Since I love bright batiks with black, I'll use black for one side of the Log Cabins. I'll go for a 7 x 9 setting, so I'll need 63 blocks. I've sorted the scraps into seven color groups, so I'll need to cut for nine blocks from each group. If I don't have enough in the scraps, or If I need more of a color (like I probably will on the blues) I'll go to my regular stash of batiks. I really like working this way - in small "bites"- so about the time I'm getting bored with a color, it's time to move on to the next color.
The units were made with the base I used for "A Rooster for Carlos" and "A Peacock for Yara".

This is my newest quilt design, made from all batiks and featured on the cover of the June/July 2012 issue of Quilt Magazine. Blogged here: www.cvquiltworks.blogspot.com/2012/03/cover-girl-island-b...
A batik boutique. This is at Pasar Kedai Payang. This coloured and patterned cloth is now becoming popular in Malaysia and the best Malaysian batiks come from the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. There are two types of batik, the hand drawn and the stamped. Recently there are also machine printed batik which design is clearer and colour on one side only.
Hand drawn batik uses a small copper cup and fountain pen like ‘janting’ with melted wax to draw across the length and breadth of the cloth. Dyeing process is like filling colour on the drawing block, only different is the outline is wax instead of pen. The waxed areas resist dye. The cloth will then sent to ‘boil’ in warm water in order to get rid of the wax after it is soaked in chemical that makes the colour stay.
Stamped batik has the similar process like hand drawn batik, only different is the janting will be replaced by a copper or sometimes a wooden stamp which looks like a domestic iron with artistically patterned bottom.
Today batik is not only used for outfits but some innovative commercial individual has made full use of this beautiful and artistic textile into making bags, cushion covers, curtains, slippers etc.
