I do use batting. I buy it from Wal-Mart its the fusible Pellon 973 batting. I found that they are the least expensive around $3.97 a yard. I also use a decorator fusible interfacing with some fabric combinations. Such as in the blue toile fabric and burlap bow tuck bag. The toile fabric was a decorator weight fabric - heavier than regular cotton fabric. I tried it with the fusible and it was so thick I kept breaking needles when sewing through all layers of fabric. On the second on one I did I used the interfacing on the outer layer and the fusible batting on the lining, handles and pockets it worked out well.
