I bought a package of the Dream Green batting and want to use it for a baby quilt. Is there any reason why it can't be used for a baby quilt? I wasn't sure if the plastic bottles would be a problem. The batting feels nice and soft.

I used the Dream Green batting in a couple quilts for my granddaughters, and found no reason not to use it. It isn't fire-retardant but most battings and fabrics aren't. I ironed it just like cotton batting. And didn't have a problem. It's nice and light so it won't be to heavy for a baby also. And it quilted just like any other batting.

Be careful with your fabric choices when using Dream Green. If you have light colored fabrics, the green shows through like crazy.
Personally, I would not use it for a baby quilt. The whole fire retardant thing is more important to me.

I think you'll be OK with any all natural fiber. I'd be more concerned about a polyester batting or fabric melting immediately than I would worry about cotton or wool smoldering and smoking if it was exposed to high enough heat.
