there was no shrinkage, it is warm, lofty; and the price was right.
the only down-side i had with it is...it's green...when i bought it i had to wait till about 4 quilts later before i used it because i was afraid of the green showing through on my light/white fabrics, so i had to finally make a dark quilt so i could try it out. i love the (recycling aspect) of using this batting...just like i buy fleece for quilt backs, vests, socks...i believe in using recycled fabrics. :)the batting and polar fleece are made with the same (ingredients) and process...same stuff, the batting is less (dense/tightly woven)
Thanks for the positive resonse....I have felt it and it does feel so "yummy" soft. Might give it a try...depending on any other input.. :thumbup:

Thank you so much.
