Island Batik Butterfly Ballet 2.5" Strip Pack – 40 Precut Batik Fabric Strips

Butterfly Ballet by Kathy Engle for Island Batik brings together expressive botanical batik patterns in purple, magenta, coral, orange and golden yellow. Build a quilt that glows with saturated color, from deep violet accents to sunny gold and coral.

This strip pack includes 40 precut 2.5" strips in 100% cotton batik, giving you a coordinated starting point without choosing every fabric separately. The ready-cut strip width lets you move straight into planning strip sets, log cabin blocks and other patterns written for 2.5-inch strips.

Why you’ll love sewing with Butterfly Ballet

• A palette that works together: Separate the purple strips from the warm yellow and orange group for lively light-and-dark blocks, or blend them together for a joyful scrappy effect.
• Less preparation: precut strips simplify strip piecing and help you organize color groups before sewing.
• Creative possibilities: a lovely starting point for bright strip quilts, colorful log cabins and statement table runners.
• Easy to plan: the pack count and cut size are clearly listed below so you can check your pattern before ordering.

Plan your next project

Try alternating light and dark strips for a log cabin, arranging color groups for a rail fence, or piecing a simple striped table runner. Check your pattern’s fabric requirements for the number of packs, background, borders, backing and binding. This listing is for fabric only; a pattern and finishing supplies are not included.

Care & helpful notes

Follow the fabric label and your chosen pattern’s preparation guidance. The manufacturer recommends a gentle cold wash, no chlorine bleach, tumble drying on low and a warm iron. Prewashing small precuts can change their size and cause fraying. Colors may vary slightly between screens and the fabric in hand.
