Thank you. Wonderful explanations and appreciate seeing the samples. Ready for batting on my first full size quilt and wasn't sure what to use. Your video was exactly what I was looking for. Think I will try the bamboo.

Great explanations, would love to see quilts that have used the different batting’s, to see the drape, and the “poof” as you called it around appliqué blocks. Thanks

Love bamboo batting...thank you for mentioning it!

[@helenscott4869]

Thank you!

[@donnathompson1619]

great explanations, however, no mention was made about whether to buy with or without scrim. Also, which ones are not safe for something that will go in the microwave?

[@patriciamoller3060]

Excellant , thankyou

[@Joy-tb1cp]

Will the wool batting not separate when washed overtime as the polyester does? Will the wool batting drape at all?

To make a duvet/puffer jacket, what batting do you recommend?

[@jeancox4235]

Figuring out what batting to use has been my hardest part of quilting. I prefer an unwashed quilt look, instead of the shrunk crinkled look. I also want the quilt to breathe well and not be so heavy that it squishes down on toes. The backing I use also comes into play on the weight. Cuddle and flannel make a quilt heavy, which changes my batting. Help! I am currently making a quilt for my grandson which will have flannel backing. I am thinking 50/50 or bamboo. It is a chevron quilt, so I want it to stay crisp, not crinkly, but I also want it to breathe well. What would you use?

[@Leellka]

it is sort of impossible to combine
breathable batting means natural fibers. but they'll shrink and crinkle. although some prewash by hand (soaking).
for kids and babies polyester is recommended - light, warm, resistant , quick to dry. but no breathability (yet). however it is a most sanitary option, of which people seldom think avoiding washing quilts

[@lauramiller9672]

What is scrim and how does it compare

[@andreawalker2535]

Not much information here.
