Lawsonmugs, it will work just fine. Since it can be used in the microwave, you know it does not have metal in it. Metal and micros don't mix. Be sure you have enough yardage in the bag so you don't run out. I am a long arm quilter, so qayg is greek to me, but battings, I do know about. 100% cotton batting is always soft and pliable. It is when you get to the 80/20 you have a little more stiffness to the batting, but will wash up soft. Hope that helps.
