Scrim is a thin sheet of synthetic material that lends stability to the batt.

"Feel the batting to determine if the scrim is near the center of the layering, or closer to one side than the other. If you cannot tell, then it will make no difference which side of the batting is placed next to the quilt top.

If the scrim is closer to one side than the other, we recommend that this side be placed closest to the backing."

Won't help much this time but maybe next.
If you find something that works let me know, I have one of my husbands Tshirts I'll send to ya and let you shave it too. Some how it got tossed in the washer/dryer with a load of towels. Maybe he shouldn't do his own laundry no matter how BAD he needs the shirt.
