OOOH the black is superb! The quilting is over the top. Tell me about the wool batting. It is too warm? How does it wash? I have some, I am scared to use it.....

I love the black, too!!!!

Can't answer about warmth. Personally, if i want something warm, I will start out w/ a flannel backing. My mom does say the Warm and Natural is warm - and can be heavy.

It washed great - I used a cold wash/cold rinse and a delicate cycle - on the shortest amount of time. I just want to remove dust and cat hair. I wash all my quilts, even w/ cotton batting in the same manner. I use a mild detergent - Dreft that is left over from when i fostered and had a teenage girl w/ a baby.

The packaging said the wool batting should be laid flat to dry, so i did not put it in the dryer. The shrinkage/crinkly effect is probably from the cotton fabric shrinking up. I used Quilters Dream and there is never much shrinkage, even w/ their cotton batting.

My quilts w/ cotton batting go thru the dryer and w/ medium heat. My brother's quilt had cotton batting because he'll never remember to lay a quilt to dryer - he'd rather throw it the dryer
