I've switched to using mostly 80/20 battings because I grew tired of the inconsistencies in some poly batts (i.e. thick and thin areas). I tried fusible batting ONE time, and found that there were areas about 1' wide that had no fusible on them!! It was so aggrevating that I swore I would NEVER use another one!! :thumbdown: I like the feel 80/20 batts and cotton batts give to my finished quilts -- just like grandmas' quilts; so cuddly and warm. I've never tried wool, silk or bamboo batts, but some people who have seem to really like them. ;)
Great idea about the batting journal!! I'll have to try that!! :thumbup:
