I don't like the wrap-n-zap. I think it is too thick. I found some 100% cotton batting with cotton scrim at JoAnn's a few weeks ago. I tested it and it seems to work fine. I always test and make sure people know to only microwave them 2 minutes at a time at most.
However, I did buy some 100% wool felt that seemed like it might be the right weight. I haven't used it yet, and I think it was a little expensive. But I was thinking wool doesn't burn, but will smoulder. Has anyone tried wool for bowl cozies? |

Just remember that Warm and Natural is 70% to 80% cotton and 20% to 30% polyester. It's printed on the paper that comes with it.
You must be thinking about an 80/20 or 80/30 product. |
To prevent bulky batting in the seams, you can cut the batting slightly smaller. It can also be trimmed right next to the seam line. I do this with items that will be top-stitched and/or quilted.

Like several others, I don't put the cozies inside the microwave. I put my dish in the cozy as it comes out of the microwave. They're great for ice cream as well.

No, the paper says Natural Cotton 87.5%, Polypropylene 12.5%

Would like to ask the best price to ask for bowl cozies at craft fairs. Thank you.
