Scrim up or down?
I had a conversation with a quilting friend and was wondering what members here think. We were talking about 60/40 wool/poly batting that has scrim and whilst I think the common/correct (?) assertion is that the scrim goes against the backing, the comment came up that the scrim would serve the longevity of the quilt better if used againt the top of the quilt when the quilt is intended for a child. The presumtion here being that where there is an anticipation of much jumping, rubbing and "rough contact/usage" the scrim would stop "pokies" coming through the top of the quilt whilst enduring the rough life on a childs' bed.. My friend and I pondered on this for ages and got nowhere in our opinions so what do you all think about the idea?
