If you are using left over batting like 100% cotton Warm and Natural be aware that it is only 87.7% cotton. The rest is not cotton and flammable. The Wrap and Zap is made for use in the microwave.

My experience also, frightening, I used the batting packaged & sold for potato bags & all cotton fabric & thread. Never again.

For you ladies who did have fires, out of curiousity, was it the first use or after starch got onto the bags a few times? What's the wattage of your oven?

I got my potato bag as a gift and according to the instructions that came with it, it's best to dampen the bag, I did, and never had any problems. There is batting just for them so that can be used for the microwave bowl holders. I got my batting from Connecting Threads.
