I use poly as the second batting ... it keeps the weight lower, and drapes better than two layers of Warm and Natural.
I've never put poly and warm and natural together. Don't know why I didn't think of that before....duh moment!!!! lol!!! I bet that works great. One layer of warm and natural is not warm enough for me. Right now, my youngest daughter has offered to let me use her quilt which is one layer of white and bright(poly) and minkee on the back. It's one of the warmest quilts we have. She is always so warm she don't use it much.
I will be trying that with my next quilt.
