My Mother had a hard time handling it due to very weak wrists. Would you choose a different batting if you were to repeat this gorgeous reversible quilt again?
First: a million thank yous, to you and everyone here, for your encouraging comments! I treasure each one.
And yes, I would definitely try a lighter batting because the Warm & Natural cotton batting did make the quilt heavy. Probably some of the heaviness is due to the zillion seam allowances of the two sides, but having made only two quilts with batting, both times using W & N, I didn't know enough to take that into consideration. (I do now!
