I won a spool of organic cotton thread as a door prize. It was very linty and limp. It shredded too much when used on the machine so I used it for handsewing. Bamboo batting is not bamboo.

Federal Trade Commission want consumers to know that while bamboo does grow quickly with little or no need for pesticides and has found excellent uses in hard products like flooring and furniture, the soft bamboo textiles such as sheets, shirts, and batting are actually rayon, which is not an environmentally friendly product.
