I'm almost ready to start quilting my embroidery quilt. Nine blocks with embroidery, sashing, inner and outer borders. Well - almost, almost ready - since I'm replacing the sashing with a different color. A day's work to finish and be ready to baste.

So, I think I mentioned before that the blocks are pretty dense - but they seem worse in my dreams than in real life and are fine. Anyway, what would be the best batting to use to try to "hide" the stiffness. If I use a low loft, I'm afraid that the distinct back of a dense block will be too obvious through the back.

I'm thinking a mid-loft poly because I don't want any shrinkage of the batting. What do you think?

Thanks,
Cathy
