Yes, I have now re-read it all! Definitely worth the time I spent.

As above, I have used bamboo batting a lot since starting this thread 8 years ago.

The drape, feel, hand or whatever terminology you want to use is still my biggest attraction to it.
In my experiences, bamboo has been more cuddly than Warm and Natural, or many other types/brands.

I have done heavy quilting as well as minimal, and have not noticed a huge difference in results.
It still has that nice flex-cuddle results.

One quilt in particular has had a lot of washing and still looks and feels great.
Yes, there has been shrinkage, but no worse than many other brands/types of batts.

Bearding while quilting or later has not happened.

Sure there is some fluff and duff as I work with an exposed batt,
but not really any more than other brands/types.

Nor is it any worse for needing to clean my machine. To me, that is just part of the process.

Once finished and bound ... it's all soon forgotten and I love the feel of these quilts!!!
