I've only completed a few quilts (many quilt tops ready to go). After reading so much on this board, I have used the Dream products exclusively. I am still working on what I like best. The Dream Request and Dream Select are nice to work on for both hand and machine quilting. I would like a little more loft to them, however. I have used two layers of Dream Request for table runners and like it but I think it is too expensive to do for quilts. I want to try the Dream wool as it is suppose to be machine washable and dryable and easy to work with for Machine and hand quilting and it is loftier. Have not used the Dream Poly. There has been much discussion here on the board about battings. I'd recommend a search.
