I use whatever is on sale simply because it is on sale.

I stock up at Joann's when it is 50% off, and use my additional 10% off card. I have probably used them all, but find an 80/20 or poly batting easier to hand-quilt than Warm and Nat. I still have several queen size of those, and 4 Fairfield 80/20 from Joann's plus a couple of Mountain Mist that I have had for several years and just not used yet. I am well-fixed for batting for a while!!

I use warm and natural and warm and white. Have used Hobbs 80/20 and it was fine, but normally like the warms the best.
|
I didn't set out to iron my batting, just to smooth some spots in the border before I added the binding. The Hobbs melted together slightly. No harm done, just a less than fluffy corner. I have pressed a very wrinkled poly batt, but I knew I was pressing batting, so I didn't have the iron on too high and I didn't set it all the way down. I like 80/20 okay if I preshrink it. Can you tell I'm the weirdo who isn't after the old fashioned look?
