How many quilts a year do you make? If it's a lot, then a roll of batting could be the way to go. Otherwise, they are heavy and get in the way. I have had a couple of rolls and they did get in the way even though I kept them in the corners. The last one I had I gave it away when it was about 1/2 done. Just couldn't stand it anymore. And I fell in love with the wool batting, then I sent 2 of my quilts to a LA and their batting was super reasonable. So my sister's guild said the would be thrilled to have my batting I couldn't get it in her car fast enough. There are so many places on line that sell batting at a super good price I no longer keep it on hand. Just order it when I need it.
