Not a silly question, but I fail to understand how quilting on the back can produce a puffy look on the front. The puffiness would be determined by the batting you choose and how close your quilting lines are. I have always had the same puff on the front and back, regardless of of which side I quilt on.
I have used warm and natural and polyester low loft, but it seems like the front is always flat and the puffiness is on the back. What kind of batting would you suggest?
