Have considered no batting and that might be the way to go. Have you put one together with no batting and did it come out ok?

I am mentally planning my second one as soon as I get a couple of baby blankets finished in the coming week. I really enjoyed making my first string quilt and see many more in the future. Might try a color pattern next time around but who knows. Thank you for your response. Ellie
