Am making toppers for Christmas. Do you use batting in them or not? Even though I used low-loft in my 1st one, it seem too thick. Tried one without and it seems flatter. Just wondered what others do.

I asked the same question. Click on search at top of page,then type table runner batting & see what you come up with.

I use a lowest-loft batting I can find in my table runners and table toppers.

I use batting in mine. If its not something that anything hot will be put on, then I use low loft poly. If its for anything that something hot could be set on then W&N.

As far as, whether to or not is up to you. Personal preference. I personally, like a little poof.

Warm and Natural goes in all mine. Whatever it is I make.

I have made 2 now using the wide felt. It worked out really well.

I also use "warm and Natural" Just can't make myself make it with no batting. Just wouldn't seem like it was finished. My opinion only.
