Art quilts often contain all kinds of crazy (to a traditional quilter!) fabrics and mediums, and are all the more stunning for it. You will have a project that has some unusual interest when you mix.
If it's going on the wall, combine anything you want.
If it's going to be washed, consider how the different fabrics might play well together in the washing process.
Otherwise, go for it!

I don't think it's a problem to mix fabrics. If you wash the panel and it loses its finish, then it will match regular 100% cotton and won't look like you're mixing anymore. That may be good or bad, depending on your perspective.
