Fusible batting??????
I've never used this stuff before but I picked up a package at the thrift store. So have you used it? What are you're thoughts? Good, bad? Is it tricky to use or hard to quilt? Thanks for all your help!

Great question. I have used it on purses, totes, wall hangings, etc. but never in a quilt. Seems to get to stiff for a bed quilt. I am sure there are lots of quilters who have used it for more than I have. I will be watching for their answers too. Thanks for posting.

I use Hobbs Fusible batting for all my quilts and I love it. It makes putting the quilt sandwich together a pleasure: I can do a lap quilt in an hour! It is easy, drapes nicely and is excellent for machine quilting. It can be re-fused easily and is nice and soft when the quilt is washed. In my last quilt I used two layers for more warmth and am very pleased with the result.

Are you thinking of fusible fleece? Fleece would be stiff for a bed quilt but fusible batting is different.
