yes yes yes...bamboo batting is wonderful to quilt with. Soft and silky yet warm and light. In fact I discoverd bamboo socks from Dharma Trading. Every year a do a big dye session for all kinds of clothing and fabric. I buy my blanks and supplies from Dharma Trading and got their bamboo socks to try. Now every one in my family wants them. Of course you may not want to do any dyeing, they come in a nice off white so it is ok if you don't. I can't wait to get some bamboo fabric to dye, I also got some cotton/bamboo yarn from Dharma to dye....made me some varigated yarn for who knows what new project. Fun time.
