I love working with Warm and Natural.... BUT.... sometimes I miss the LOFT of the polyester batts we used to use. A few friends have been using the new wool batts.... I have seen their quilts which have been professionally quilted on a long arm... they're okay.... but.... not spectacular... nor cuddly..... I don't know the answer but for myself I love a soft cuddly quilt, and so many people choose to use quilting patterns that stiffen or flatten their quilts. I guess it's like everything.... try it.... and if you like it...great.... if you don't like it......cross it off the list.
