Welcome to the Quilting Board!
You're welcome....I did use the warm and natural.....it worked well....
I like to use flannel in some of the placemats and table runners I make. When I do use flannel, I preseason that. If I use batting, then I don't pre wash. I don't pre wash my fabrics either.
I also use the Deco Bond by Pellon You can usually get it at Wal Mart.
I use quilter's felt or just whatever cotton batt I might have handy, Hobbs 80/20 or warm and white /natural, whatever comes to hand. Never pre-wash any of the above. Never had a complaint.

Love this thread and the information is great. One friend told me how a wine glass had tipped over on the placemat because the batting was rather thick. She switched to very thin batting after that.
I use Thermolam Plus for placemats available at Joanns

I thought that is what we were supposed to do with our remnants of warm and natural or Hobbs 80/20. Well that is what I use mine for placemats. I throw the batting in the dryer before i use it. I have made many table runners and placemats and have never had a problem. Nice to use up what you have on hand.
