Hi all,

I am turning my sister's wedding dress into a wall hanging quilt but I've never made a hanging quilt before. The top is satin and I'm using a wool batting. I plan on using a sleeve across the top for hanging because I've read that will help maintain the shape.

What I'm not sure about is what type of fabric for the batting. I could use satin of course - I've found a white that is a decent match (can't match the blue for anything) but I'm not sure I should use satin. First it seems overkill, and second I would think I should use something more durable as it will rub against the wall. Cotton (broadcloth or muslin?) would be my usual go to but it seems a bit dull. Would that even matter? I mean it'll be on the back and never seen. Would a batik be better?

I'm torn. Any advice?

Thanks
