Again thank you
Oh yes, Poly and wool double batting would be very fluffy. On the next one try wool over something flat and dense like W&N or QD cotton. I think you will be much happier with that combination. I have also done poly over a flat dense batting with great results.

Additionally I think your combo of poly and wool contributed a great deal to the pleating on the back.
