I thank everyone for your suggestions... and I did think about what was said. The 2 quilt idea seemed to be a good option... but I really don't want to make 2 quilts :)

Thank you Sephie for your comments about Warm and Plush - - so at least I know that I am not alone ha ha ha

So I did it. I doubled the warm and natural

I was just going to do one layer. I had the top glue basted to the batting and my sister very emphatically tells me that dad gets cold. So i was afraid one layer would not do it

I glue basted another layer of warm and natural and then the backing.

wrestling with that was a little bit of a struggle. But I just did a meander FMQ. I threw it in my home washing machine and dryer..... everything seemed to work well

now all that is left is to see how dad handles the quilt. :) :) hope its not too much for him to manage

I do appreciate all of your thoughts. I am working on a tshirt quilt now and now I feel much better about using one layer of the warm and natural batting for that quilt.

I will post a picture of my finished quilt

Thanks again everyone

I have been using Warm and Plush -

Now I have this warm and natural and it feels too thin compared to the warm and plush

My question is ... has anyone ever used double batting with warm and natural batting?

I have used double batting before, but it was a small quilt and I was basting with safety pins.

This quilt is big - - like 85 x 75. And I am glue basting. Do you think the glue will cause me problems? You know because there will be twice as much glue now

any thoughts?

How do you glue baste?
I’ve never heard of that, but sounds interesting

Here is a video...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey3-Y6OPweU

I don't use the foam brush and I dilute my glue with water.

There are probably alot of other videos on YouTube if you check

This is about the only way I baste my quilts now. Its so much cheaper!
