Thanks. I really prefer supporting a local store over Walmart, but I will have to hold my nose and order some there. I don’t like the concept of poly quilts. I use cotton or wool in mine. And yes, I know W&N has some poly scrim, but not 20% worth.

Connecting Threads carries many Hobbs battings. I prefer the 80/20 over W&N . They have sales often.
I purchase a lot of my packaged batts from BattingSuperSale.

I will have to look into this once I get outside again. Do you have any idea the fiber content?

I prefer the LQS for this but I don't have one within 20 miles of me and I don't drive very much and no distance at all. So if I can't get it online or JAF or Walmart I am out of luck.
