I have made several table runners lined with Insulbrite, no problem. They are a tiny bit stiffer that those lioned with Warm and Natural but it is not necessary to use table protectors. I quilter them just fine on the machine.

Definitely use warm and natural layers with insulbrite in the middle. Makes such a nice difference and totally cuts down that crackling sound. Also makes it much more absorbent.

There is a insulated batting type that I bought at either JoAnns or Walmarts last yr to do the same type thing except that I made my whole tablecloth out of it. I made the tablecloth one side is for Thanksgiving and the other side if for Christmas and it quilted really nice. I can't remember the name of it but if I can find it you should find it in Richmond.

I have several placemats made with this and did not have these types of problems with it and I have washed them.

Uh.....isn't Insulbrite a relatively new product? All those potholders from years long past were made with what? And I, for one, never had any problem with them.
