Do you use black batting?
|
I did in my king sized black quilt. The white could have poked through the stitching and would have shown.
|
Just finished one with black batting because the top was mostly black and the back was black fannelette so to prevent and show through I used black. Usually use natural Warm and Natural though on all other quilts.
|
I use it on quilts with either all or mostly dark fabrics. I've only used the Hobbs black batting, though. Typically I use Warm and Natural or Warm and White on 90% of my quilts.
|
I have a package of grey batting, I'm just waiting for the right quilt to use it with.
|
I have used Dream Black for a few quilts.
|
I didn't even KNOW black or gray batting was available!!!!! I'll definately use it on my next dark quilt...I've been grousing because my black/white/red quilt has the batting poking thru and the white batting REALLY shows!
|
Black is great. I have used it several times on darker quilts and on one that I handstitched with a variegated color thread. Came out beautifully.
|
Didn't know they made black batting.
|
Yes, it is wonderful for dark quilts :D:D:D
|
Yes for black or dark blue quilts. It is not easy to find around me though. Only one LQS carries it.
|
I had made a wall hanging for Christmas with a starry night and I didn't know there was black batting! The stars were looking like comets.
|
I just took a large, mostly black quilt for Long Arm Quilting; my first
such experience, & she said it definitely needed a black batting. I had taken her Warm & Natural neutral color. She showed me what would happen on one she had made for herself. So she was kind enough to swap it out for me; exchanged my Warm & Natural for the black batting. I was not aware there was black batting prior to this experience. Very grateful for this assistance. |
I have a dark quilt I am working on, and bought black batting to go in it. I didnt want the white to come thru. But as a rule, I use Warm & Natural.
|
I am working on one now that I have black quilters dream. It is mostly black quilt.
|
Do you order your black batting online or pick it up at a store? I would like to buy a roll of it , as I make a lot of quilts with black backings , and don't want the white fuzzies showing up.
