warm and natural has bits of hard stuff in it, that I find annoying, so now I use a cotton poly blend. It also seems to shrink more evenly with the quilt when it washed. it is an 80/20 blend by Poly fil. I buy it at Joann's. I am not a purist though, my budget is tight so I buy with coupons.

I have been hand quilting for the first time and I am using the warm and natural batting. I find it a little stiff when pulling the needle through the layers. If I remember correctly, I think there was a thread on what battings are best for hand quilting. Anyone have any suggestions? I do wash my quilts so I need a batting that will wash well. Thanks, Christina
