Batting?
Which batting would you choose for a large wall quilt?
I plan on washing it, and I don't want alot of crinkle... |
For a wall hanging I'd use a polyester batt.
|
Polyster works for wall hangings, if you plan to wash it. Or you could prewash if you want to use cotton. Silk is nice, but pricey.
|
Polyester. It doesn't shrink, and it will keep a large wall quilt relatively light in weight.
|
I just quilted two wall quilts for a friend using Soft and Bright (poly batting) from the Warm Company. It has a very even texture, unlike some poly batts that seem to be thinner in some spots than others.
|
I have only made one and used poly batting. Mostly all I use for quilts too.
|
Thermore is a polyester batting that is a perfectly even thin-ness all over. I haven't used it for a wall hanging, but for quilts, and have been pleased with it when I wanted a polyester.
|
I have done a couple of quilts with fleese! it doesn't migrated and drys fast. no crinkling either as I quilted a large 8 in grid.
|
I decided to use Hobbs Polydown. Thanks for your recommendations. Here is the quilt: https://www.quiltingboard.com/pictur...s-t295976.html
