Thanks so much for all your feedback. I have ordered some and am looking forward to trying it. I really like the idea of supporting the reuse of plastic materials--and the fact it is the same price (or less) as new polyester batting makes it even better! I do often use a lot of white in my quilts so will have to watch for the green color showing through--thanks for that head's up! Seems like the 'melt in fire' situation would be the same for all polyester battings, whether from recycled plastic or not. So for those that prefer fire-retardant fabrics/materials for crib/baby items, this might be a concern, although I don't know of any cotton batting that is fire retardant?? And I agree I would not use any polyester batting for something like hot pads, trivet pads, etc. that come into contact with high heat. If you can't find it locally, I do see it for sale on Amazon and ebay too.
