Hope it isn't too late to ask another question here.

I've made a couple of baby quilts with the Bambooo Batting by Fairfield (the makers of poly-fil) but gave them away. Lately I've been making bibs with Warm and White (IIRC), ran out and have tried 3-4 bibs with the bamboo batting and find it has no "spring" to it. The old cotton batts had a more lively feel. Does that make sense?

Some article or other was discussing "drape" and how the lower loft products had "more drape" or draped better. Maybe this bamboo would drape well (1/4") but it feels more like a towel than a batt!

Anyone else think it is strange stuff?
