Well I am not really sure that it makes the quilt thicker by any significaly amount. What it does is shows the quilting dimension a bit more. I think the loft actually is the same if you use warm and natural. ...it just gives it a trapunto sort of a look without all the work.
IF you over quilt poly it flattens out....so that means it doesn't add any signifiacant amount of loft.....and usually when I use two layers of batting I am quilting heavier.
I hope that helps.
