Hi, All,

This weekend I finished a lap size quilt top made from corduroy (the wale is relatively narrow). Now I have some decisions to make! Has anyone quilted with corduroy before? Here are my two main questions:

1) When I first started this top, I read somewhere that it's common not to put anything between corduroy layers, as it's already pretty heavy. I understand the rationale, but I just feel a quilt has to have something in the middle, be it a swatch of flannel or some lightweight batting. Any suggestions? I'm leaning more toward batting, but not sure what kind to use. I don't mind the quilt being heavy, but I don't want it puffy.

2) Tie off or quilt?

Thanks all!
