I am so sorry that I bought several of these some time ago and just now am finding out how awful they are and I am stuck with them.
If it's any comfort, all of my quilts with Hobbs 80/20 have turned out wonderfully soft and comfy. I usually sprayed the batting with water and fluffed it in the dryer before layering. To be honest, I never noticed major problems with the layering. Anything I did notice, such as wrinkles or uneveness, were not noticeable in the finished quilt. It's been awhile since I've used Hobbs 80/20 (although I have a few bags of it waiting), so I wonder if the quality has changed lately.
