    I use 100% cotton fabric and 100% cotton batting and a layer of Insulbrite batting.

    I agree with SherriB and trennag - you don't want to use polyester as it will melt.

    Before insulbrite, inside, I used 4 layers of terry cloth cut from the good part of towels that had developed holes. All 100% cotton.
