Let me know--you can influence a new batt product on the market.

I would love a batting with more loft, but I'm not interested in bamboo for the same reasons others have. However, as a hand quilter I LOVED Mountain Mist Blue Ribbon Cotton with the glazene finish. The batting they call Blue Ribbon now is not the same.

Right now I use either the Hobbs Polydown or the Hobbs wool.
