With a cotton batting, I would expect this would be stiff. I used Quilter's Dream Puff and it's not stiff. I've also used Quilter's Dream Wool on a quilt that was heavily quilted and it was also still soft when done.
Thanks sooo much for the info Shelley! I'll get some either Dream Puff or maybe try the wool...I haven't tried it to quilt with yet. I have done some heavy quilting on cotton and it is stiff, thats what had me worried. Thanks again..now I have to go back a drool all over your blog...could you tell I've been very messy there?? :wink:
