Which means, of course, another quilt, LOL! I have a question regarding the batting for this quilt. Being a southerner, I usually use a low loft cotton or 80/20 cotton/polyester for batting. My husband's nephew will be relocating from Houston all the way to Canada and will reside with his new bride there. Where it's REALLY cold! Maybe there will be storms where the power will be out and the quilt will really be needed for extra warmth. Should I consider a warmer batting? Wool perhaps if it's warmer? If so, what, if anything do I need to know about working with wool batting? I'm concerned about the shrinkage. Please give me your opinion on this if you live in colder climes :)
