We like having several blankets on the bed for the weight, i sleep like a baby when it's cold and i have lots of weight on me. The quilt won't be the only blanket on the bed but like I said, we like the weight. Do you think the warm and natural would be the best for this situation? I know it's not a favorite batting from what I've read.
I am with you on liking the weight of cotton. I use two battings one layer Warm and Natural and one of poly( not the big fluffy one). It give great definition to the quilt and is much warmer than a single layer of cotton. Its a lot of bulk to quilt on a regular machine , so think about sending a double batted quilt to a long arm pro.

I also like the layer of poly as it dries much faster than two cotton layers.
