Sort of depends on the look you want. I prefer a light batting, it gives a more demensional effect. If you don't want or need batting, then just put a fabric back and either bind or turn RSO and finish! Pics please!
ok i will post picture if i can figure out how to do that
It will hang better with a batting. I use a firm one like Warm & Natural.
The Earth without art is just "Eh".
I agree, exactly what I do...think the batting helps the quilt hang flatter on the wallOriginally Posted by ghostrider
Yes that is a real picture of my hometown Temecula, California. We feature premiere Wineries, World Class Golf Courses, Pechanga Indian Casino and Hot Air Balloons
I buy flannel when it's 50% off the clearance price at JoAnns and use that as batting in my wallhangings. This way I can add some quilting if I want and it doesn't have to be spaced a certain distance.
I use warm and natural for small wall hangings as well as my quilts
