Do longarmer's prefer to sell you the batting or does it matter if you provide your own? I've only sent two quilts to longarmers twice. One was a baby quilt and the other was a bed size (can't remember if it was full or queen) and both of those I provided the batting. They were two different quilters.

I have two large quilts that need to be quilted. I'm trying to decide if I want to use a 50% off coupon to buy batting for those quilts or if I just want to go with what the quilter offers.
