Wall Hanging blanket thing

[sunflower71]

When I drove through camden they were selling these think blanket/sheets with patterns on them (Om and spiritual patterns) you hang them on the wall like a sarong.

What are they called?

Not sure if they have a proper name but I just typed in 'fabric wall hangings' in Google and got pages and pages like this one

Hi there Sunny If the things i'm thinking of they are called Battiks (not totally sure on the spelling.

Batik is a method of dying fabric (dunking the fabric in solour after wax had marked out the pattern then repeating the process until finished).

I have never heard of a fabric wall hanging ever being called anything other than a wall hanging, or just referred to the method it was designed eb batik, quilting, tapestry.
