If you read this website carefully you won't find anywhere that it says W&N is 100% cotton. http://www.warmcompany.com/wnpage.html
First thing I read was gives an antique look. Pellon is great. I use it in handbags and have never had any trouble. I guess you could wash the batting first to avoid the crinkled look.

I am understanding that the Silk batting has recently been improved.

Which is why you don't use it in a microwave!

I use Hobbs Thermore poly batting for wallhangings & table runners. It won't beard. It doesn't shrink when washed because it is poly. It drapes beautifully and stays that way. Hand quilts like a dream if you would want to do that.
I really like it for baby quilts too.

Quiltin Chris; Thank you for your reply... looks like W&N is definitely in my future, along with a wee bit of Hobbs 80/20.
Thank you again everyone!!
