The first time was in cold water with other like color fabrics so I don't know if it bleed the first time.
I don't believe that is a batik fabric. On a batik, you can see the pattern through the front and back clearly.

With your fabric believe the bottom is the right side of the fabric, the printed dots are on the right side to help match other fabrics to it.

Thank you for this post! I am getting ready to start a queen batik quilt (finally one for myself instead of my kiddos )
