    Default Quilt Batting Online?

    After trying once again to buy something from my local Joann's (never again). I need to know where is a good place to buy quilt batting online. I need king size. I was trying to buy it by the yard but I would buy a pre cut. I need a white batting that I can quilt far apart. Machine quilt. Good quality and good prices would be nice. Anyone have any recommendation. (Joann's is the only fabric store within and hour of me and after the last couple of times there I will NOT go back there) So online is really the only option I have. Since I can not see or feel the batting I really need some recommendations. Thank you all in advance.

    I buy mine from Connecting Threads. I don't know about your specific needs, but if you contact them I'm sure they'll help you.

    Connecting Threads is good when they are having a batting sale, as they are now. Here is a link:
    http://www.connectingthreads.com/bat...t_batting.html

    Other places to look including Amazon, Overstock.com, fabric.com, http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/ , and I'm sure there are many others.

    Batt-mart is another. I have not purchased from there but their selection is enormous and the prices look good. I think others on this board have purchased from them.

    Smile quilt batting online

    Marshallsdrygoods.com is a great place to try. I have bought batting by the roll and they have 90 inch wide. I have always be pleased with their batting.

    Thank you guys for all of the suggestions. I really like the Connecting Threads site. Beautiful fabric. Is it good quality? I like being able to see and touch before I buy but my only local store is Joann's and they are AWFUL and I am being nice. It is a tiny store anyway with a VERY limited selection and no one who sews works there so they are clueless. I am done with them. I will drive the hour or order online. I knew this group would know of good reliable and quality supplies for what I need. I will just have to be patient and wait for delivery now instead of running out hoping to find what I need and someone who knows what they are selling to me. Any other suggestions are welcome as well. You can never have too many place to buy quilting supplies.

    I have bought the poly batting from C.T. and I think it is too thin. I buy high loft poly batting at Walmart.

    Thanks for the Batt-mart referral. Their site looks great and they sell wholesale.
