Thank you, Prism99. Aw, puckering!
Heirloom Wool is medium. I tried a couple of low-loft battings for my hand-quilting and found the result really disappointing, it showed so little that it hardly seemed worth all the effort. But low-loft might be a good choice for me to start practicing MQ with.... hm. Much to ponder!
