ROTFL! :lol:

I'll jump in here and change the subject a little. How about Bamboo batting? Has anyone tried it? I felt some at a quilitng expo. It was really soft.

Look what I found:

It is 4:30 PM - and it is 21.9*, sun is shining, but is starting to set now (then it will get really cold). Tomorrow is the day. We are supposed to have snow through Thursday. My husband and I aren't moving. I am staying in the house, cook my little heart out and sew when I am through for the day. Big dinner planned and am having a ball. I love cooking. Turkey, right now, all 23 lbs of it is in the stationery tubs in the basement. Will take til Thurs to thaw it out. Have to get up bright and shidy early to bake pies before I even get the bird in the oven. Oh, what fun. I am just thankful to be doing this. Happy Thanksgiving. Edie

Welcome from South Florida, never heard of soy batting, just poly, cotton, wool, and now bamboo. Good luck.

Not sure, but have used a blend of soy fiber yarn and wool yarn for my GD's knit hats. The yarn was wonderfully soft and smooth. Good luck!

Another welcome from Connecticut. Hope you enjoy your stay here. It's fun.

Welcome from Oregon, and Happy Thanksgiving. :P

Welcome from North Carolina , again.

:-P :-P :-P :thumbup:

Maybe that quilt would know enough to cool down when you had a "power serge" while under it!
Love your thinking.

As the name implies, and as others have posted...origin starts with the mighty soy bean...making me hunger for Edemame.

Haven't seen it at my second home yet...(Fabric Depot here in Portland :-P ) but have seen and tried the recycled plastic bottles. Not bad. They also carry the bamboo batting and the cotton/silk mix. Haven't tried those yet...too cheap to part with that much $$ for stuffing. :lol:

I have never seen soy batting but have seen soy fiber sold by the hank for doll hair and any thing else you can think of to use it for. It kind of reminds me of soft cotton piping cord, the big stuff you use to pipe bedspreads. It is really soft.

Another welcome from Oregon. You will enjoy this forum and learn a lot and get lots of support.

Plenty of answers to your questions. It is true you will never be lonely with this board to turn to. I have learned so much and always find a topic I am interested in.
Welcome from Michigan's Upper Penninsula. I am about 20 miles from Escanaba & 40 miles from Menominee. Lots of Yoopers around the country. Winter is settling in and hope to spend many hours quiliting (if I get off the computer!)

who or what are yoopers

Yoopers are people that have been born and raised in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I am actually a "Troll", meaning that I was born below the Bridge connecting upper and lower MI and have lived here 40+ years.

Welcome from Texas!

Sharon- cotton batting is made from cotton, like some fabrics and clothes, comes from a cotton plant. Soy batting has to come from the soy plant. I haven't heard of it before, but there certainly is a difference betweenm cotton and soy.

What a hoot!

TOO FUNNY! :D
