    Our quilting group is making place mats to sell. What do you suggest for the filler? The mats are all cotton. Thanks for your help.

    I've made placemats with warm and natural. They came out beautifully.

    I use whatever I have on hand as long as the loft is low.

    poly is fine just as long as you have some quilting on it.

    I like to use the synthetic felt that Joanns sells...very washable and has a nice, little big firmer feel than Warm & Natura. I feel they lie a little flatter also. Don't know if there is any "down" side to it but I've sold alot of them.
