Question About Batting
I was given some batting (it's not Warm & Natural) and it is white, soft on one side and rough on the other--what is it used for? I already used it to make a tote bag but I wonder if I should use anymore.

rough on one side??? ...are you sure it isn't the kind with glue on that side? or by rough do you mean kinda bumpy?
|
Some battings if they have a needle punched schrim (sp?) one side is rougher as that is the direction the needle punched through.
|
It is bumpy on one side, I wet an area and it doesn't appear to be glue.

It could be a fusible -- cut a small piece, put it bumpy side down on a scrap of fabric and iron. If it sticks it is fusible. The fusible battings I have used are to be fused to the backing, and when I am done quilting then wash the quilt to get rid of the fusing.
