So, if young parents today follow DRs orders, babies will not use their quilts while unsupervised.

I personally dislike 100% polyester batting. Some of it feels like brillo to me, and I imagine it scraping away the quilt fabric from the inside. But that is my wild imagination, as I've never heard any one complain about that.
You are correct Cathy, many new Mums use sleep sacks for their babies when they put them to bed. That is why I was asking about a stroller quilt and a tummy time one.

I have lots of 80/20 and some bamboo batting. I will likely use the 80/20 and perhaps use two layers in the tummy time one.
