I may have to do some checking on that.
You like it better than W&N??
that's just it, I don't know.
I've never used warm and natural, but think I have read that it give quilts the wrinkled old fashioned look.
i like for my tops to look sort of smooth.
I prewash all my quilt fabrics, and i don't wash after it's finished, before gifting.
Tell me your experience with the W&N, please.
W&N does wrinkle up just a bit after it's washed, but some people also wash their batting in addition to pre-washing their fabric. I think if you prewashed W&N and your fabrics and didn't wash the finished quilt before gifting it would be nice and flat as well. I love using W&N as it is so warm and easy to sew through.
