Welcome to the Quilting Board!
What do you use for a batting for Place Mats and Table Runners? THANKS in advance for any help.
I use my leftover pieces of Warm N Natural.
I use warm and natural also. They lay nicely and wash well.
Pellon fleece interfacing is the only thing I'd consider using. I prefer the non fusible one, but it comes both ways. In the interfacing dep't at the fabric store, not the batting dep't.
I use fusible fleece for my place mats and what I use for quilt on my table runners.

Asking a seamstress to mend is like asking Picasso to paint your garage.
I use my leftovers from Hobbs 80/20.
A Good Friend, like an old quilt, is both a Treasure and a Comfort
I have used warm and natural & also Hobbs 80/20. Both work great and wash up no problem. I used Hobbs 80/20 on a tablecloth a couple of years ago and it has been washed and then thrown in the dryer many times and it still looks like new.
I use Stiff Stuff by Lazy Girl Designs. I've used it on 4 sets of placemats. It washes well, doesn't require a lot of quilting, stays flat, and is thin. I like that even after washing it doesn't seem to hold a crease. Perfect for me!

for my tablerunners, I use a very thin poly batt, it comes on a bolt size under the counter at JA's.
for my placemats, either warm and natural or just a lightwt. interfacing. I like it so the glasses
don't tip over.
put off till tomorrow what you can do today, and if you procrastinate long enough, you may never have to do it.
I use better than burlap on runners , works just fine
