Hi Lady from Australia!
:-D
I have come up with another few ideas for batting, specially if you have to count your pennies.... I have gone to OP-Shops (for the people in the States, there are some 2nd hand shops run by LifeLine or the Salvation Army) and there you find for a quite decent price some bedspreads, all sizes, in all sort of thickness which you can cut up and use as batting, also blankets are to be found, thick and thin ones. Lately my daughter who owns a motel has given me a whole pile of mattress protectors she wanted to replace with newer ones and they are just great!!! :thumbup:
