Newbie! Flannel Charm Patch Blanket - Batting Help
Hi Everyone! So glad I found you! I have been sewing for a little over a year and recently fell in love with quilting. (I'm kind of obsessed actually) I now sew on a Babylock Soprano, which I love (especially after previous machine that I got for $25 at a yard sale.) We do get addicted quickly, don't we!
I was going to make placemats, so I bought some Moda flannel charm packs. I decided they would make a great throw instead, so I bought some more charm packs (would not necessarily do it this way, not lazy, just wanted consistency).
This is for my hubby, who would prefer a comfy blanket for watching football, etc. Therefore, I plan to go light on the quilting. I bought warm and natural 100% cotton batting. I am now thinking maybe I should have gone for a high loft poly? Not sure my machine could sew through all of that though? Unwashed and un quilted, it's about 72 x 60". I welcome all opinions! Thank you!
