I tried different battings just to see how they would handle and right now Warm and Natural (or Warm and White) is my favorite. I love the slightly stiffer drape and it washes fabulously. But that's me - and based on some of the reports here I may try some different battings just for the heck of it. For me, all the theory is nice to know, but it doesn't tell me how the batting will FEEL.
Happy quilting.
