Hobbs 80/20 is a wonderful batting. The sale at Connecting Threads is a very very good price.

I've used Quilter's Dream -Select. My favorite is Hobb's wool blend. I wonder about the bamboo batting. Has anyone used them and what is the the advantage?

Cotton is just a choice. I usually use warm and natural as a go to batt, but I have used a low loft poly that was a very good choice. It was about half the price of the W&N. I am considering buying a whole roll.

I know 100% cotton batting is the best for quilting and I'm looking for a place with a good deal on a king size batting.

Keepsake quilting!

Walmart on line has some good prices on various types when you buy 4.

This place sells it on rolls - enough for a lot of quilts!

I go to Joanns. I never buy anything pricey without a coupon.

Connecting Threads and 80/20. I agree.
