I notice the difficulties in finding all of a section/unit, beyond the few listed as being important at the moment. To answer about the batting in table runners: I put one layer of Warm and Natural type inside, to give some definition as I like to hand quilt each design, then bind off the edges of those I make. For a longer type runner to place hot dishes on (in ther center motif/design area) I add some Insut Bright, and then write a note to the recipient that she can put hot dishes in that section. The only machine quilting I have done (becxause of bulk in handling material at the machine) is on table runners, where no filler or batting owuld work all right.
