Warm and natural thin all cotton works for me.

Warm and natural has a new batting that's half cotton/half polyester. It's thin and not bulky. I really like it.

I like flannel for runners and mats -- gives it a little extra body but not to make it fluffy so something like a goblet on it tends to tip over! These are two of my favorite quilting projects to make. Would you care to share a picture of your projects?

For small projects, I often use fusibles - June Tailor or fusible fleece - purchased at Joann's w/ coupons or 50% sales. If the project is small, then I just use my scraps of warm & natural (either cotton or poly).

I use warm and natural or flannel for some. Both work well

I like to use flannel for batting in my table runners. I always wash it prior to use as it shrinks quite a bit.

I always use W & N now since I discovered it on this board!

For tablerunners I really like Hobbs Thermore. It's a very thin batting for clothing or other projects without much loft. It sews well. I use fusible spray to hold my batting in place. The loft on the runners is not too great and is unlikely to tip a vase or something else on it. I get it at Hobby Lobby or Joanns with a coupon.

I just finished another runner, and used fusible fleece... got it at my LQS ,, it is what they suggested... wonderful to work with, no more wrinkles in the backing as I quilted it on the machine.. jacie
