Just to make life more interesting, for HAND sewing needles, the larger the number, the finer/thinner the needle.

I tell myself " eyes up" ---- meaning if there are seed remnants- those brown specks- I see them as I layer the quilt
A question from another Grundy Co Illinois person. With needle punched batting, how do you know which side faces the front or back?
margee QUOTE) If there is a rough and smooth side to the batting, the rough side goes up against the quilt top, and the smooth side goes down, against the backing. Sometimes there are also brown flecks on one side, and that is the side which goes up against the quilt top. If there is a scrim layer, it goes down against the backing. The purpose of that layer is to prevent bearding through to the back.

I had that happen and I called the company. They told me there is a right and wrong side.
If you put the wrong side up it will punch through.
So it has to be bumpy side up, against the top and smooth (scrim) side down,
against the backing.
And no, mine never went away.
looks like others had answered also.
