After reading much discussion about Warm and Natural batting here, I was thrilled when our local Hancocks offered it at 50% off over the MLK holiday weekend. I went in and bought some to try, and I'm really shocked at how thin it is-- like a piece of felt! Is that really thick enough to make a warm quilt?

Also, I read that it will shrink from 2-3 percent. What does that do to your finished quilt? Would that work better with fabrics that you did not prewash, so they can all shrink along together?

Please help this cotton newbie understand this. So many people seem to love this batting!
